    Am I screwed? Battery at 17 volts?

    Always hook up a battery disconnect at the battery. Small loads like smoke detector and such will drain the battery. Never understood why RV manufactures buid them this way.

    Recieved my 2 Overkill bms for my 8 272ah cells. but probly another 2 months for cells. Figure about $1,400 for the system. Al plates, springs, hydrolic clamp, terminals ect. This would be equivalent to $5000 for Battleborn. Happy Happy

    Wire battery charger into system

    I believe you do not want to go over the BMS max amps to charge. If this was me, I would find the max PV and decrease you charger input to reach max BMS amps. Or disconnect the PV and run your charger, like at night, in case you oversleep and the sun comes out.

    How about Anderson connectors with 1/0 cable for battery to inverter disconnect?
