We decided to go the Nissan Leaf Module route for our battery bank in our skoolie. There isn't a whole bunch of information out there so I was hoping to find some more opinions.
Our bank is 9 modules, each module new is 8V 66ah and 500Wh (reality because they are used is 7.84-7.85V the other values are probably reduced as well)
(guessed 50ah,400wh)
So our plan is to create a 24V battery bank.
We originally planned on grouping 3 modules together in Series and then the 3 groups in Parallel.
Which If I've calculated right would make a 24v 150ah 3.6kWh
However when watching battery videos it was suggested that it would be better for the batteries to be placed in Parallel first and then put the three groups into Series.
Is this true?
Would it be beneficial to my system if I got a battery cell balancer?
