As the prices keep falling, every good addict here easily comes up with excuses to buy more batteries. See:
After 100kWh, he’ll have trouble sleeping and will be getting shaky again.My goal is 100kWh somewhere next year. I'm currently at 60kWh, so rather small in comparison to the others here

I already bought a Victron Lynx Distributor to combine the new bank. I backed myself into a corner with the first setup and if I gotta keep up with you guys, I need to plan better. Might just as well order another Victron Lynx Distributor, so I can take a bank out if service without loosing power.

More cowbell.. MORE COWBELL…!
All of you guys have great looking systems… Seriously , it inspiring to see the work that went into that stuff…Generally speaking ,I think if you haven’t built a system one cant really even appreciate what one is seeing…And what I built pales compared to these big boys…

Catch, make or grow everything you can.
-ever notice the cell prices drop about a month after @timselectric buys a truck load of cells...and the market sags in response!
Well please don’t dive out the window headfirst …( and comb your hair)
Talk about market forecasting....
You can use a Lynx power in if you wanna save some money
There’s even some vids on YouTube on adding the fuses
I should be at 62kwh by years end. All in EEL cases.
No pics cuz I’ve been slacking, I’ll try and fix that this weekend.
Similar to @42OhmsPA i had an arbitrary goal of 1000ah and I’m only 200ah away, but still 40kwh away from the magic century mark there
My next batteries after these 4 will be much smaller and more portable

Why I love DIY. Go big, go small, your choice. Can change in the middle of the road if you want.

In a short time, month or so, I will be at just over 230 kwh. I use too much power with a house, shop, 2 electric cars. All off grid.

Can't you just use lynx power ins if it's just batteries you are adding? Or is it for additional fusing also?

As penance for not ordering any cells this week your penance will be to top balance all cells after disabling BMS balance.

I've heard that before, I've also heard that there's a hack to make the LEDs work with just the fuses (I need fusing currently) or maybe I'll see about using some Victron stuff to monitor the new banks. As the Pace BMS can only network 15 batteries.
I'm added to two banks of 7 - 100Ah SOKs, I'll divide the new batteries into two additional banks. And I'd like the ability to feed my Sol-Ark 15k's two breakers individually in case of battery maintenance.
Seems to be lots of tricks out there for Victron's products.

Can you imagine even 5 years ago, things like 30kWh at home was amazing. Wonder who will be the first here with 1MWh - it's even pretty realistic to do right now.
