Hi all
I'm planning a battery build that requires the cells to be laid out linearly.
Like so:
I know this layout is a pain and not ideal, but its the only way they'll fit in the cavity...
NB: I'm not planning on building this myself, hopefully getting it build professionally, so just doing my research for fun really and I guess as a backup in case the pro-build falls through.
The plan is to use 56x Samsung 50E 21700 cells, on a Bafang build, which is capped at 30A.
I've got a few questions really, just wondering if anybody can chime in:
I've got a ton of other questions, but that'll do for starters :lol:
Thanks!

I've got a few questions really, just wondering if anybody can chime in:
- First of all, have I understood correctly where the BMS leads, B+ through to B-, should attach?
- Attaching cells end to end like this obviously required them welded side by side, then folded over (exaggerated with u-shapes in diagram). Has anybody build a simple 'folding jig', to keep them all nicely inline?
- I've read a bunch of really interesting stuff on this forum about copper/nickel-plated-steel sandwich for the welds, can anybody suggest the right copper and plated steel specs for this build?

Thanks!
