Im seriously thinking about buying one of these super beast but I don't know enough about lithium to make a final decision i know this would be my most financial friendly option so I was wondering if you could please explain to me how it comes to be a 96 AH from the 48AH super beast does it become 96 AH after 12v conversion??? Please excuse my lack of knowledge before I went away an extra lead acid battery in the back was doing big things now everyone has massive lithium banks

Great info. I wonder if you could order one of the plates that are connecting all the negatives, and use it on top to join the positives...I get you'd have to modify the plastic piece with the integrated handle, but the new plate would cover the mods and look super clean when it's done. I've been watching DIY Lithium bank videos all morning and this is the most interesting thing I've seen. Thanks!

Alright, first off, Im a meat head. I have this assembled backwards however I cant see it making a difference. Basically, the bars that you connected with the cut off piece on your positives, is connected on my negatives. Everything reads the proper voltage, I just have my negatives on the right rather than your left lol.. with that being said (and tell me if that will make a difference), when referring to your balancer video I followed but had to reverse the green and white wires rather than the way you had it. My balancer “run” light has been on and I have been charging it ever since (few hrs tops) but the light has not turned off. Is this normal?

Your balancer and BMS monitor lines are not on all the cell groupings. You should have jumpers across the center plates, and another copper bar across the other two vertical plates. And if one cell dies, you better have some serious connections between the center plates and the other side.

I like this method, but your balancer will never balance that pack... the leakage current will be many times what that balancer can provide. You need to look for one of the 5 Amp capacitive balancers... since you have 12P times 8A cells... or 96Ah capacity per parallel cell group.
