4s Configuration

[Zigzag]

I've not considered before the 4s configuration shown in Will's resent video.
It looks interesting and gives another option for the battery box. What do you guys think maybe the busbars having to be a different length might cause a resistance imbalance if that makes sense...
I'll be using 4 280ah EVE cells and maybe compress between two pieces of 3/4 plywood.

The busbars are a different length for the 8s and 16s square packs using prismatic cells

Thanks for pointing that out ? so should be no problems with that worry bead..
What's the thinking of mounting the cells on their (flat) side? From reading comments on the forum it shouldn't be a problem, does anyone think differently?

Mounting position depends on who you talked to. There's a thread that discusses that. For EVE cells, I think it was determined that going on the long side would be OK. I considered going that route but went with a terminals up orientation.
