Big Upgrade to our DIY Lithium SBMS & LiFePo4 Battery Bank - Part 1

Follow along as I decommission the venerable @electrodacus SBMS100 Solar Charge Controller with BMS and retrofit our whole electrical system to the SBMS0 with 4 DSSR20s.

Part 2 - Diversion Hot Water can be found here:

Building our own Lithium Bank with an external BMS costs $0.27/kWh, far less expensive than the ~$0.75/kWh that a pre-rolled drop-in lithium battery costs. If you already have equipment designed for lead batteries, and you only need a small 1.2kWh (100Ah) battery, that might be okay. But for our Full-Time life on the road, 100% Solar Powered Cooking, Air Conditioning, and Computing, we need a lot more.

I've shared the 3D printed wall mount design here:

😔🎤 Very sorry about the audio clipping in this video, I changed the lav mic on my transmitter and didn't check the levels and it was a bit too hot, combined with me projecting over the wind noise... 😔
(I fixed it the best I could)
