    JK-BMS question?

    I'm interested in getting the same bms. What inverter are you using? Wondering if the 200 amp bms will suffice for my 4000 watt inverter. It is only going to be used at back up right now.

    Help me finally get my system built.

    I like the jk bms. Largest i can get it 400 amp so really 200 continuous. Seems I would never pull more than that but I want it to be safe for sure.

    ANT BMS. Final answer? Yes, final answer.

    Ok so i just got my 16 280ah cells. Ill be doing two 8s2p banks for 24v 560ah. I dont think 100 amp bms for each pack is big enough. Next step up is 300amp. Is that ok?

    System wiring help.

    thanks. So would I be able to use branch connectors instead? I would assume not as the current at the end would be too high for those but I'm not sure. Also if I use a combiner box would the normal 10 guage wiring from panels be ok to the combiner box. I found a diagram on another thread that...
