Just ordered Option A. you were the only one who spoke up. so your vote wins. I agree with you on all accounts.

Metal Battery Box Fire / Electrical insulation Ok, convince me otherwise... Ceramic Fiber Insulation. Meets all criteria... I think... General info about Ceramic Fiber here https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/materials-science/ceramic-fiber Does not corrode Fire proof Electrical insulation...

I would need 3 of these to reach 3kW . Intriguing though. Looking at it more. But at that point, I would likely just get a Stealth EV 3.3kW charger that also does 1kW 12v DC/DC conversion and takes 15,30amp 120 or 50amp 240 standard shore power. Much easier and robust part...

This great. Can you share a photo of your finished product? Thanks

This one too $210 per unit + $150 shipping total https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/LiFePO4-Battery-Packs-Smart-BMS-32S_1600172926272.html?spm=a2700.12243863.0.0.38403e5f2xcSDo

Step up Shore power 30amp 120 volt to 240? Sure. tell me how. Diagram and parts needed. I have no knowledge on the subject.

I need 32s 96v 120 to 200 amp continuous BMS that have Monitoring capabilities + Temp. These are hard to come by. I have found these two. Option A This is $150 Each Shipped to the USA They claim 200 continuous. but I am doubtful...

Its a 96v Pack, Not 48v 32 280ah cells in series = 1 96v 280ah Battery. 3 of these Batteries in parallel would be 280ah * 3 = 840ah at 96v. Your math is correct for 48v. Which this is not. If I create 48v Packs, they would have to be in series to create 96v. Don't get to add the AH when...

Here is what they said Looks like not quite the right product. Truly need the ability to plug into standard Marine/RV 30amp 120v circuit. This is the deal breaker. This will be for a fully electric boat (Off Grid) that runs on a 85kWh 32s 96v LifePO4 Battery. Can the battery Charge setting...

I am leaning heavily towards 6 16s 48v packs, each with its own BMS. or 3 32s 96v packs each with its own BMS. This way I never have to parallel at the cell level. I have read that parallel at cell level is better. but it creates lots of points of failure and I loose the ability to...

This product looks perfect. Perhaps too perfect. I sent them an email. We will see. Very limited info on the website or PDF. but it appears to have Inverter, Charger and even MMPT built in.... with monitoring LCD and breakers + more. Very unclear from documentation on what kind of shore...

Spot on. I will do extensive research before the actual box is ordered. General idea is there are options of pre fabricated boxes. It will for sure need to meet my criteria above. Good Call out to make sure I check all reviews first. Massive thanks.

Battery Box - Discussion. This needs to be Robust Needs to be fire proof - IE metal Needs to be lockable. Needs to be able to Bolted to the Boat. Needs to be able to fit at the lowest part of the boat down the middle for stability. Initial research seems the battery box will be one of the...

Any other thoughts from people? Reliable 96v inverters? Thanks

Cricket, Cricket. There must be someone out there with 96v BMS experience. Thanks

You are Absolutely correct. Cat is better on all accounts. Find me a Glacier Bay for $5000 and I'm in :) 30 min web search so far and even 20 year old ones are $30k. If I sell the motors for $10k. which is a long stretch for a 2 20 year old motors, and I am still $20k or more deep in the...

I share your concern. Some of the 100ah Cells are bomber. 85kWh would have cost $20k though before BMS, breakers and case :(. I hope to make the Packs as safe as possible using these ideas 1) Locktite on studs 2) Each pack compressed so no stress on the Terminals 3) Each pack on a breaker...

Scary. The cells I have are cheapo...... Doubt much consideration for bump / chop. over time.

96v Inverter chargers – HELP So Far, I have found these. They all scare the heck out of me. https://www.inverter.com/6000-watt-off-grid-solar-inverter 6000 watt inverter runs on 96v Battery Do not believe there is monitoring? Can charge Battery at 30amps from Shore I cannot find much info at...

96v Solar Charger - DONE After much research and contacting companies. I went with this iPanda 96v Solar Charger. No idea if it is good or not. It is getting shipped as I type. PROS – 96v, “Industrial” IP67 Waterproof, Configurable via PC, Has Wifi APP to monitor. Has great name. iPanda. who...

Yes. Great advice on all accounts. 1) Terminal is aluminum and Studs are Stainless and Bus bars are Nickle plated Copper :( For this reason I am using the Silver Grease. But agree. Possibly Downhill battle. Will have to maintain and keep track of. thank you for reminding me of this. Will...

Agree - Not a displace hull, My numbers will be worse Also Agree - Cannot keep this boat on plane. will not get the 150hp to get there or 50 to maintain. Just not going to happen. And Agree again. Had typo on kW vs kWh.. fixed. Think the math and number are still correct for DISPLACMENT hull...

Agree, and looked for a long time. But round 1 is a complete experiment. $1800 was about all I was willing to spend on the boat since hull will likely be a throw away. (Electrical will get re-used in final project) All the Cats I found were $20 to $30k on the cheap. The final 40 foot boat...

Yep - Fake it till you make it. I am putting a lot of weight into the knowledge of this community to guide me :) Batteries in route. Worst case scenario, I use them for my off grid home solar and scrap the boat project.

Doing similar project. 96v. Just started a comprehensive Forum to track progress and get advice as I go. https://diysolarforum.com/threads/96v-solar-cabin-cruiser-project-full-solar-shore-inverter-lifepo4-discussion-and-progress.20903/

Battery I have already come to the conclusion that I would need ~85kWh to make the electric boat more than a toy for a small lake. This is on par with the size in many electric vehicles. I am disturbed by my initial findings. Food for thought Premium batteries such as Victron at the time of...

Starting this thread to document the full Solar Boat Conversion Project. Always looking for good advice. The Concept 1) I will eventually be converting a nice 40 Cat from Gas to Electric. Needed a project boat to experiment on first. 2) I found this 23 foot boat for $1800 + Trailer delivered...

Took the first step. Contacted this company. They were extremely helpful. My Mars 96v 50amp Waterproof ip67 Solar Charger with WIFI / App + PS monitoring will be shipping from China Next week. Product looks good. We will see..... SKU - (96BH-50A). Industrial and Waterproof. looks like they...

Looks spot on. But not sure you can get that in North America. Did you have more info? Only found Arabic website. https://orexpower.com/products/3kva-hybrid-inverter-60a-mppt-controller

Need a 96v inverter for my Solar boat. Battery , MPPT charger are 96v. So far I am only finding cheapo aliexpress 96v inverters. Looking for something solid. 3000+ watts. Suggestions Please. Thanks in advance.

Will be on a 32s LifePO4 pack. High Amp setup for ME1616 motors. (Small bms / contactor combo?) Looking forward to feed back. Looking for industrial and robust. also.... suggestions for 96v 300 amp Breakers Thank you.

More research - Here is what I found. Would love your input. Writing this down so I have it in one spot for you to scrutinize and tell me I am wrong. Have at it :) 1) RE: the Center Tapping or 48v and 96v on a switch system. Did about 10 hours of research on this one. Nobody seems to believe...

Not sure I understand this, Would need a diagram. Also out of balance 48v packs is a no go from my understanding. Would love to hear more. You have my full interest
