Reorganization
With the reorganization idea in full swing and literally every component removed I re-measured everything and created a simple cad mockup of each board's physical volume.
I combined that, some Tetris skills, and 3 YouTube videos to calm the ADHD. The result?
I decided to mount everything directly to the case except the voltage converter, which will mount to the top of the charge controller.
Files will be uploaded after I finish printing and do a test fit to make sure I didn't mess up with the calipers.
Battery Take 3
I admit I don't always think ahead far enough and I forgot that the BMS needs a wire to each cell to keep them balanced. I carefully slit open the pack casing and soldered new wire to each tab.
I closed the whole thing up and now I have an extended balancing wire harness so that the BMS can be mounted with the power cables facing the battery instead of the cable harness ports.
