Hi all
I'm Just starting to order gear for my Off grid setup. Thinking I'm going to order CATL cells from "Daisy Efest" at Docan technology Shenzhen. Just wanted to ask if anyone has experience of dealing with them?

Be careful, and wait for advice from members of this forum. Many battery vendors are not to be trusted.

docan should do you good...

Hi compatriot ! i would like to buy the same stuff, did you place your order ? i deal with Jenny Wu.

Late reply, my project was delayed and I have done it this year instead. Following everyones advice, I ordered cells via Jenny Wu and everything went smoothly. I purchased a Luxpower SN6000 inverter from another supplier and a JK-pb2a16s15p BMS on Aliexpress.
Everything is assembled and working but I haven't yet connected bms and inverter communication and I really don't know what I need to do! Can anyone help? Thanks in advance,
