Ready for constructive criticism

I'd recommend ditching the breakers and using good fuses. Those breakers have a terrible history of not stopping current when needed

Class T is the best fuse to put on a powerful LifePo4 battery, second best is a MRBF terminal fuse

Then use a decent quality battery disconnect switch and between the battery fuse and the busbar plus a double pole solar disconnect. This allows you, after any maintenance, to connect the battery to the charger first so it can see the batteries voltage then connect the solar
ok i will look into those fuses and the double pole solar disconnect. The heat shrink with appropriate colors and bus bar covers.


Thank you
 
Can I add these habf terminal fuses to the bus bar and remove the breakers? Or is there a better option? A better option for the money?
