So I think I'm past the planning stage and ready to start building.
I have 100 or so cells on their way tested and ready to start building with (thanks jon)
A 24v ups to use for the inverter and low voltage computer shut off.
My plan so far is to make a 14p7s, chances are it will only have about 20ah of capacity to start with.
Im thinking of using thisBMSwith a heat sink and maybe fan. This is over kill for my size system but nothing to what most people want/need.
Im hoping to feed this through a solar setup using cheapy eBay panels as i can afford them, or maybe even build some custom stuff for the hell of it.
Now for more questions
With the solar does it just go straight to the charging of the BMS? or do i need to make sure that the voltage from the panels is above 24v? (cant find much info on li-ion solar regulators)
On the same note for topping up the system from mains if required could i simply plug the UPS in and use its internal charger through the BMS?
Bit confused about the BMS stuff
Does this all make sense?
