    2 8s bms in series

    In one of Wills most recent videos he made a 48v 320ah bank. I bought 16 310 cells with 2 daly 150a 8s bms and I initially intended on making a 620ah 24v system but was persuaded to 48v for its seemingly endless benefits. So my intention now is to series my 2 already bought 8s bms. In his video...

    16 3.2v cells, 1 BMS or 2

    Goal is a 564 (or whatever is available at the time) bank. Comprised of 16 cells in a 8s 2p configuration. Is there a correct way to manage this system in regarding to 1 or 2 BMS being used?

    Understanding charge controllers

    Looking to get a better understanding of charge controllers and their parameters. Specifically the input side. Picture below is from a listing for a lv2424. So I got that it can take 2000w of panel at up to 115v of input. But if wiring wasn't a consideration would it matter if they were all in...

Egos also proprietary batteries advertised as 56v but measuring around 58.1 when fully charged. Thinking in my head if one were to put 17/18 3.2 cells in series...

    Gathering info for initial components.

    I'm constructing a system to be used purely for emergency backup. Not grid tied, not used as a main source ran through a hybrid inverter ats.
