Hi, pretty new to solar and I've been crash coursing myself for the past couple days. Currently doing a bus build and saw the price of battleborns which 180'd me to look at diy options. After browsing for a bit I found a good deal on prepackaged cells from Batteryhookup ( https://batteryhookup.com/products/new-battery-hookup-lifep04-32650-3-2v-5000mah-cells-1 )
So what I'm planning on doing is getting 8 3.2v 100ah packs and wiring them in series with a 24v overkill BMS. I learn best from videos and seeing how people wire their setups, but all of the diy batteries I've been coming across are done with prismatic cells and using plates for bus bars. The description on the battery website says that you can use nuts and bots to wire them together. Can anyone direct me to a diagram of how to connect these in series with the balance lead from the bms?
And what kind of bolts work best as bus bars? steel aluminum?
Thanks for reading!
