Slim cases for 105ah cells

[JimmyL]

Where are people buying the ultra slim cases for 105ah cells? Seems to be a lot of batteries coming out in these cases but can't find them empty. I think it would mount a lot easier in my vehicle.

That's a nice slim pack, but very pricey for 12v 100Ah Lifepo4.

A friend of mine recently built a slim 12v 105Ah pack for his motorized kayak using this box from Aliexpress (large size):

Turned out pretty nicely, here are some pictures he shared. He's using a small 40 amp JK BMS, so it all fits nicely. But if you use a larger BMS, you might need to improvise something better:

Battery boxes are indeed a problem area for prismatics

Cobber boxes? on Alix all lithium boxes are for 18650 variants

here's my take 4 x 105Ah £14 galv steel powder coated - Posties - for the use of

make sure to put a BT antenna wire outside or make a plastic window where the letter flap is (good place to put the led meter)

BTW on the subject of BMS, this is a 12V box, can you put two in series for a 24V job. If each pack has its own 12v bms within the box. You could stack the boxes? But when you come to charge them, can you use a 24volt supply
with 2 x 12v bms in series? Do they start fighting? Does one get over volts?

Have I got to use two separate galv isolated chargers (ie smps wont work not isolated unless driven from xformer sep windings)
