Cheapest 5kWh DIY Whole Home Battery Backup System

BUT think of the fire risk!
I have a 300AH battery system for my modest solar panel (hobby) setup. It comprises 4 lead acid batteries of varying capacities. They are sealed cells and represent ZERO firs risk no matter how fast they are charged (Through a Steca Charge controller) and irrespective of how fast they discharge through a 2KW inverter. That is a statement that can be made 100% for LiPo. I wouldn't let them in to my home.

Putting Li battery bank in home...heard of fire?

Great video, well explained.
Good job

$2000 to power your desktop? That sounds very costly.

You are using only 42 volts, that will not power anything in the USA

I couldn’t find best video ever on this topic. Congrats! Best wishes & Success!

Carnivore and Fasting are what Im doing. I gave up Dr. Scale for Dr. Mirror. He is brutally honest and no copay.

Probably not a big issue. However, the set up would be better if it is on a fire rated board: metal, cement board, drywall. He did mention about depend on the local code.

dont put lifepo with BMS in SERIES, if one bms fail, you are fucked, i have seen it, wanna a 24 volt battery? buy or make a 24 volt battery with a 24 volt bms, DONT PUT BMS IN SERIES EVENT IF THEY SAY THEY CAN DO IT

Very informative. Thanks. LiFePO4 chemistry is inherently safer. Does each tiny cell have a bms wire, or only the four bundles?

One thing that we will always get from our Chinese friends. Great value, the Chinese consumer knows how to shop, and knows how to find good deals. The next great thing that comes from our Chinese friends is intelligence, especially in the field of technology, but I have seen this intelligence stream through all fields of academics. Excellent Video...

This feels more like an AD for these batteries. That makes me nervous.

I checked the battery circuit breaker you listed and in the specs it recommended top in and bottom out, your installation looks opposite. Does it matter?

Excellent Video. Direct and to the Point. Great editing. Thank you

I've seen alot of channels on this type of information, this guy really knows his stuff.

THANK YOU1111 Yours is the absolute best video on the topic and I've been researching all week..

What kind of malfunctions and operator errors can occur with this type of setup?

I'm planning to set up just storage to back up my home when the electricity is out. Without the solar on the roof. Is that possible?

amp draw doesn't double in series, voltage does. but for a self contained battery, that isn't a bad price at all. It would be nice if it had a connector port so you could monitor the cells inside.

My ROI is closer to 7 years.
