Hey, I'm hoping to pick some people brains here that have built their own lithium banks.
My buddy has a 2019 GMC Terrain. We are currently looking into getting him a high output alternator, so I'm not sure what the output will be. Being that it's only a 1.5 liter 4 banger, I'm sure the options will be limited.
He's trying to power a "6000"ish watt system.
I was thinking 40ah of headway cells (the buss bars I was looking at are for 20 cells. Says it's for 40 ah https://coventryind.com/product/headway-battery-40-ah-buss-bars ). Are there better buss bars? Will this even be enough given the alternator probably won't be a super high output.
Looking into the actual cells, I see them in 8ah, 10ah, 15ah, and 17ah. How much of a difference to the different cells make? Am I looking at the wrong ones? https://www.evlithium.com/Headway_Battery/
I know I also need a balancer. Anyone have a website I can order a good one off of?
I know this topic has been beaten into the ground. Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.
