I went with Daly for my first, but I’ll likely upgrade to the Overkill.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Awesome choice! These seem to be the simplest and most bulletproof available. I wish I had went this route instead of my Chargery. I'm using one in my 12V 280Ah battery. It's great. The app is a lot better than the "other" 4-16S Chinese BMS I have. It connects right up and isn't written in Engrish. The output cables are much beefier as well and the docs are great. I have a lot of faith in the Overkill BMS. |

How did you handle the compressing of the cells?

Quote HistoryQuoted: How did you handle the compressing of the cells? The space on the right where the bms goes. After putting the cells in the box, with VHB tape between them, I placed the end piece of plywood in. I dropped a block of wood in that space to pry against. I pried the plywood into place about 1/4" or so. There is closed cell padding on each end. As I pried the peartition I place, I screwed it in from the front and bottom. Then I hooked up the bus bars and BMS. |

Finally got most of my parts in and got everything together. Just waiting on my Renogy pure sine wave inverter...
Took a little bit to get the BMS booted up, but everything is functioning now. Now I just need to design a mounting arrangement.
