Just ordered a Fogstar Seplos 15kWh batt to go with my existing Sofar ME3000. It's all @Solarchaser 's fault for sharing the deal on the recent SolarEdge thread!

Don't suppose there is a blog or community with discussion on how to set up home battery solutions?

I found https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w3qSFP9MnBA&amp;t=1200s (and some other videos from the same guy useful) because he just covers the stuff you need to know. Off Grid Garage is a bit techy and more for a real enthusiast I think. There's also a Seplos community group on Facebook. Bare in mind he's building the V3 kit, there's now a V4 and I'm not sure how different it will be.

True to their word, Fogstar have delivered in two shipments. I've now got a lounge full of cardboard boxes; four boxes of LFP cells, one large box of box 😄 and a smaller box of odds n ends.

Looks like I know what my project for the coming weekend will be!

I see they have changed the case. When I built the V3 I had to leave out quite a few of the spacers between the cells, otherwise there would be a gap under the corners of the top plate and the corners would bend when screwing it down. Other than that it seemed straightforward.
