in reply to Vick Forcella ™🌈🌳❄️☑️:verifi • • •@VickForcella looks neat, 16kwh*2 is a whole bunch, how spicy voltage are those batteries?
it looks like some interesting gear, I recently hooked up something similar (but 2.5kwh, getting a 10kwh set of cells soon ish) if you're wondering about any parts like the BMS setup
Good luck, be sure to use lots of fuses/breakers n insulation/isolation kinda things c:
