Ok, I have everything ready to go and will be heading up today to wire everything in. I have everything figured out but am a little confused about how to wire in the BMS. I want to double check on my assumptions. From the picture below (BMS), going from top to bottom I have 1-4 with Shunt being...

Thanks again. I have everything ordered and will be connecting it all together this weekend. Agree about the fridge thing, I have emptied and put back 10 times in the past month, getting kind of sick of that.

Thank you for the information, this is so helpful. I agree and will not rewire, my main goal for this is to keep the batteries charged while not hooked up to power. I will order the inline MC4 fuse, battery switch, 30A fuse and battery monitor. Of course I have a couple questions. I can't...

Thank you. That makes sense.
