Yes 16 cells fit in there and they offer to customize it with the BMS of your choice (JKBMS among others). They can also do the entire build for you with the cells of your choice.Those do not look like 280 ah cells to me.
In my quest for a 280 ah 8 s case, I found nothing. I saw a few cases advertised, but when I checked the battery dimensions, these would not fit.
I have two 8S batteries and they take up about 24 inches by 16 inches, the spec sheet would have exact dimensions. When I converted that to mm, the Ali products I found last year would not fit the batteries.
Edit: after reading, appears this case is 758 x 258 x 452 mm. Will this fit 16 of your cells? Also, whether that’s external or internal dimensions is unclear, and that makes a huge difference. If internal, I’m not sure if it’s useable to store batteries.
How many on a pallet? All for yourself?They have 8S & 16S Boxes and can handle up to 320AH Cells without issues.
I have a pallet of the 24V/8S Cases customized for the New JKBMS Inverter models & large display.
Mine are coming with 250A Single Battery terminals (none of that double cable nonsense for me) & 200A DC Breakers.

Luyuan also sells Assembled 8S & 16S Packs and can do 304AH Boxes BUT THEY WEIGH A LOT !!!
People always seem to forget that detail and a 16S 280/304AH Pack 88kg/195lbs +/- a bit and many "Racks" will not take that weight...
Agreed. Most racks are built for 100 amps. These boxes will handle three plus times the power but are hefty. They are EXTREMELY well built!many "Racks" will not take that weight...
Yes, this batch is all for me and shipping out on Dec.04 once everything is together...How many on a pallet? All for yourself?
I built my own, and this is much better than plywood. That covers the build. I would have rather gotten a box like this than source every single screw and drill my own busbars.Is the draw to these cases the BMS, the cell capacity, the build quality, or ?
Steve, You and I have had a somewhat abrasive past. But I very much appreciate your effort.I had my Order Paused until next week actually. Partly as I was waiting for something in particular related to the new JKBMS Inverter Models, plus had my cases customized and added more to my order as well.. I think I'm up to 3 Pallets possibly 4 now... Now I am worried about "where" to put all of this stuff during assembly & commissioning...
I didn't want a case 2 or 3 years ago when I started buying everything to make batteries. I wanted to see everything and I wanted easy access to everything. But now, I am trying to free up space in my shed. And I want my wife and others to be more comfortable. My batteries will be safer.I built my own, and this is much better than plywood. That covers the build. I would have rather gotten a box like this than source every single screw and drill my own busbars.
The other draw would be the quantity. No 8s 280 ah case was available when I looked two years ago.
My apologies. My meaning was, what’s the attraction to these vs seplosI built my own, and this is much better than plywood. That covers the build. I would have rather gotten a box like this than source every single screw and drill my own busbars.
The other draw would be the quantity. No 8s 280 ah case was available when I looked two years ago.
My original "cases" are made with 3/4" Plywood & Optix Acrylic tops. These were "always" going to be temp until final decisions made. I made the choice to stay 24V and to complete my personal bank with 6x280AH. I have been running with 3x280, 2x175, 1x105. The 105 is going to Toolshed System, I gave the 2 175'swith a KIDD SCC, APC-3kw Inverter/Charger and a couple of Q-Cell 405's.Is the draw to these cases the BMS, the cell capacity, the build quality, or ?
this answers my question. So it’s the 24v form factorIt also should be pretty apparent, not as many companies have Steel Cases for 24V and high quality ones are even tougher.
Juts like PC Cases from days gone by, there are good one, bad ones and everything in between and of course various styles to suit needs/wants.
Nice visuals. Thank you for sharing! I am going to craft a mounting plate for my BMS since it will be on a portable build. I will also be keeping my cells upright.
Thanks for weighing yours. There is a bit of weight to these.
