How to Replace a Cell on the SOK 48V 100Ah Server Rack Battery 🔋 SK48V100 Cell Replacement Tutorial

[@CurrentConnected]

What would you like to see us do a video about? Let us know here in the comments!

It will be nice to have a video showing how to balance the cells manually and to identify bad cells. I have 8x SOK 48V 100Ah server racks and the BMS is not able to balance some of them after multiple months.

How about covering which server rack batteries can have their cells completely replaced when they eventually are not able to charge effectively? I know it will many years later but we can save money if we can just the cells ourselves. Ecoflow and other battery stations are basically one shot deals. Apparently this SOK can easily be changed.

I would like to see a video on how this BMS passively balancing the cells and what is the difference between the cells when the battery is fully charged at 3.65V per cell for several cycles in a series, and if there is no need to add a Smart Neey 4A Active Balancer.

I like this battery as it is constructed but I would like it even more if there would be an option to purchase a DIY kit to build this battery at home with a possibility to choose a preferred BMS.

I would like to see a video of how this battery communicate with the Victron and MPP All In One inverters.

I would like to see a video of how the current limitation protection works for this battery when two or more batteries are connected in parallel with different state of charge

[@AdamDeLayDIY]

Such a clean design. Thanks for sharing!

[@tiborchren]

I would like to see a video on what settings the BMS resets to 100% charged state and what is your recommendation for values for these settings

[@obd6HsN]

Such a nice mechanical design.

[@CurrentConnected]

It really is!

[@tiborchren]

I would like to see a video on how to properly set up the BMS and an explanation of all the possible settings of the functions and protections of the BMS.

Buy a battery and do all the testing you want.

@@Alfonso_111 In the attached comment, Current Connected asks, what would you like to see us do a video about? So I just replied to him with a few topics.

[@tiborchren]

I'd like to see a test video or test videos about all the BMS functions by setting. I'd like to see how the BMS works at the limits and how it protects the battery, what it shows, where in the VRM portal or in the Solar Assistant show the warmings to user, how the user is supposed to know what to do when the BMS reaches and locks the battery for protection, test and show everything you can from all viewpoints, explain everything and show procedures on what to do with it and how to react correctly as a user.

[@CurrentConnected]

Thanks for the replies! Lots of great suggestions!

[@tiborchren]

@@CurrentConnected I have many more ideas for videos, I can continue in the comments under the video or send you email?

[@JonathanBixby-k2h]

The screen on the BMS tells you which battery needs to be replaced?

Thank you.
