I'm Here, But I'm Not All There
thx
I built 3 of them, they are one large bank of 64 cells 4 cell groups 16 series, 80 500w bifacials, 4 charge controllers, but the 4th is not fully up yet.4s16p? What size panels? How many SCCs?
So what are you defining as "right"?I recomend getting a single battery pack. Lots of people get multiple packs and put them together. I think that is a mistake. Doing a large DIY battery pack in my opinion is not as easy as many people think because almost everyone I have seen do it does it wrong.
I was really worried about doing the larger 4p16s banks and combining two of them. But I wanted to at least try and if it failed I would have went to a 2p16s. But the larger banks decreased the costs of m8's, wiring significantly and complexity.I recomend getting a single battery pack. Lots of people get multiple packs and put them together.

Thanks for the validation but I don't agree that it is necessarily right. It should be a function of the use case. There are good reasons to have multiple packs in parallel as well. My decision was partly driven by the fact that I already had a very expensive BMS and did not want to buy two more to run redundant packs.almost everyone I have seen do it does it wrong.
