Nice battery. I like the long shelf life and high number of discharge cycles.
There's something really attractive about a woman who knows how to DIY. I think I'm falling for you lily ❤😊
I bet I wasn't the only one that gave a little cheer for another master class self build. I bet there's also a lot of people wishing you were their cousin!
Heck I wish she was my wife she is smart handy and just plain beautiful
Ok, so there are a lot of comments saying to do things differently, but in the end, you did it your way and that's the important thing. I loved the part where you had a hole saw in one hand and your vacuum cleaner in the other -- priceless !! I don't know many people who would have tackled this project on their own...
Lilly , there is no end to your talents. Fascinating!
Live in the USA, Texas. Your ideas are fitting for anywhere in the world! Great Job!
The various things you can do always amazes me. Looking forward to part two
It's a good idea to "tin" the wires before soldering them into the connector. You want to make sure the solder flows into all of the strands of the wire where the connection will be.
This is true. I thought the same. But it should still be OK. Can be even more time consuming but beneficial for more humid or wet locations, can keep the copper from corroding.
@@jonathanfreedom1st I use ferrules for most of my connections.
Lilly, you are a multi talented person. It's always a pleasure watching your videos.
Thats cool. Love those circuit breakers. Thats what i use in my system
LILLY make sure to KEEP THOSE WHEELS GREASED! my cart like those rusted up after the 2 nd season due to outdoor rain and snow. I even had it covered with a tarp
You're smart and tough Lilly ...WE love you ..All the best
Great build and assessment of the battery Lili. You highlighted all the important parameters on the datasheet. I also agree that portability is the way to go for small systems. PS: I hope one of your sponsors can send you a heat gun for your heat shrink tubing. I have one and it makes it much easier.
Well done Lilly another good DIY project well made , your cousin is a lucky guy .
❤️Lilly.
Hi Lilly, excellent video. I like all the research with charts and data to back up decisions of wire sizes. The ferrules work great. My only suggestion would be to use a larger soldering iron for the large wire to the connectors. Looks great. Now I'm looking forward to Part 2. 🙂
After 30 years of making shit out of wood I never thought to use a bloody hoover! You genius, thank you 😊
Its a "gorilla cart" i have one ofe those. That one looks like the 400lb weight limit. I have the grey one which has an 800lb weight limit. I use it to carry groceries from the market. Its awesome. Works great in the winter as well 😁👍
Like the build!
I built a 5200w 24v system using a composite material cart. It has an upper and lower tray. I changed the two fixed/straight wheels to swivel type so I can move it around and position it from any angle. I attached sidewalls by using 1/8" whiteboard material with 2-sided Velcro. It encloses the batteries and can be removed simply by pulling off the panels as needed. I attached a shelf in the lower tray area to mount the inverter. I also attached boards to the front end of the cart where I mounted circuit breakers, charge controller (MPPT), solar panel switches, breakers etc.that
Love it. But... you need a circular saw. Unless you use a hand saw for the exercise
Reflow that solder. Soldering should be shiny layer on the outside and the copper should be hot enough that you can just touch it with solder wire and it starts to flow. These thick cables can take a lot of solder to fully penetrate. Pre-tinning them as other people here recommended makes that somewhat easier
Other than that very solid and well-planned build, good job!
I’m impressed with your skills using a hand saw and getting such straight cuts on the plywood.
Put more solar on your solar shed if the grid device can handle it. You typically can over solar panel them so you can make more money and power more of your house when it is cloudy.
You are familiar with the use of carpentry tools and assembly. Good Job 👍
Your Awesome Lilly!!!!!
Well Done .
This is a very interesting project. I will enjoy seeing the updates.
You're always beautiful and fun to watch. I love when you make these little projects. Some great ideas. Thank you!
Great video, Lily! Good job on this most useful backup power supply! That is an awesome battery & setup!
My husband built our small system using similar batteries & equipment. He did much of the same research & chose similar batteries for many of the same reasons. We can power all essential appliances.... freezer & 2 fridges, lights & ceiling fans, ice maker, etc as needed. We live where hurricanes & extended power outages are quite common, so really happy to have this available. Blessings from NW Florida!
Amazing Lilly! Your depth of knowledge and explanations create a wonderful teaching moment. Thanks for sharing.
Great job Lilly!
Looks really good!
Look forward to the 2nd build video.
Cheers from London 👍
Great job Lilly!
I had the same idea for my batteries and inverter in a cart like that. I wish I had the cash for 4 of those batteries, but they are 1 grand Canadian each. too rich for my blood. Great job btw.
Incredible self build skills ! Amazing ! Shame most of us dont have these skills anymore.
Love your channel
Thank you , Lilly, for suck a careful and concise description!
Thanks Lilly. 😁👍
Kleiner Kritikpunkt: "Solar System" ist unser Sonnensystem ;) War erst ein wenig verwirrt haha! Solar Electric System oder Photovoltaic System ist glaub ich eindeutiger. Ansonsten aber: Really nice project!!
Lilly, it looked like the iron may need to be of a higher wattage so that thick wire gets hot enough to melt the solder and form a solid connection to the terminal. If not, the connection may overheat when the battery is charging.
I wanted to add, if you can do this, you could probably wire a trailer or a camper, and do many other small scale wiring projects. When you habe the gist of negetive positive, ground, fuses, breakers wiring guages switches and lastly the dreaded relays people hate. Lol i personally love em cheers lilly
Nice in-depth review of a super project.Definately a good investment.
Great work Lilly 😁
Sweet. I’m building a trailer version. As a renter, I’m sick of paying ridiculous electric rates. Hoping to buy a property in the next few months to a year, and it will power my property when I move.
Great video. You did a good job of it.
It was very funny watching you hand cut all the wood and hand screw the hinges, then pull out a power jig saw and drill in the end 😂
Awesome build !!😃🙂😊
I live in the UK, can you recommend any UK suppliers for the parts shown in this video?
Good Job Lilly! For not being a electricion, you did fairly good!!!
Good start way to go Lilly
You did great job!!!
I love the survival videos you do. I don't care for the technology crap. Hopefully you will get back to the forest soon and make some more survival videos for us. Thanks Lilly ❤😊
Love it 👍
Wow lily 1.1 million what a success you come a long way❤
I'll give you credit, you sure can be creative 👍
Thats a really good idea. 👍
Nice job 👍👏
I built a complete solar charger, battery, and panel transport..... out of a double baby trail jogger
What kind of battery did you go for?
@@ffviifakeremake9997 well i avoid high dollar cutting edge new stuff, ( and their sensitivities i.e. $$ cold / hot ) i have gone with used good old fashioned simple lead acid deep cycle batteries. My entire ( 3 stand alone ) set up's are each made of newer but used components. One is none, 2 is one, 3 is better.
This is excellent, I just don't know what kind of battery to go for?
cant wait for part 2.
Great video; I wish you could check out the new Sodium ion battery!
I have no clue why it never dawned on me to make a mobile system! Thank you!
I've also seen a cart about that size used as a mobile sound system (complete with laptop for the playlist) for use during freedom protest marches... 😂
I know you Bent the Cotter pins......
Point being??
You mean split pins
I know you're a Karen!
I know it's too late but for the next projects, I'd keep the wires (esp. the power ones) a bit longer than necessary. It saves lot of work when you need to change some component and the connection points are not exactly on the same place (don't ask me how I know ;) )
BTW when I open the batter page, there are only 12V (and 24V systems), not the 24V ones. Sorry if you explained it, I was doing sth else in parallel to watching the video
You need to use flux for soldering, otherwise you may end up with cold solder.
The problem in the cart , are the wells . i bought 3 of them and i have to replace all the wheels because of the air chambers . i replace them by full wheels without air chambers . for a weight of 150 kg . now it is perfect .
Lily! If you put one more metal grate on top you would have the system in a faraday cage!
Nice system lily
I have a 48v system, soon 96v will be the new standard lol.
Very nice.
Hey plug in a wind generator back up. There's always wind sometimes there is no sunshine. Sterling motor too.
I would have an electrician look at that.
Those little wagons upset really easy I know cause I own one that is wider and it tips over
Nice hand saw cuts and they can use these on Maui , I’m seeing a $1000 price for that battery
You are the best cousin!
Did you use pressure treated wood for longevity in outdoor conditions?
Hang on.
You showed this video a year ago.
I know you did cos I saved it and have been wanting for P2 ever since.
Naughty girl, Lily.
Where's P2?
Nice build, btw.
This is part 1 but with new footage. Part 2 coming soon
Any chance we'll be able to get a complete parts list to make one ourselves?
The electric charts should Mach the cable isolation.
When you do electrical videos. You speak my language....🙄twice. 😂😂 Electrical engineering is my thing.
Hi Lilly.... The battery you used does not appear available on the EU website. How did your cousin acquire it. Great video. Thanks.
If you let a Lithium Ion battery discharge to 0 it will lose its ability to be charged you will have to shock it back into the ability to charge if you're lucky. but the BMS should protect you from that situation
Is that a full size freezer? What about a small chest freezer? How long then does it run?
My Ep Ever charge controller will let me discharge my battery bank (like if I fall asleep watching TV) to 11 volts, So I have to be careful wit that.
The tyres on these trolleys aren’t great. If an upgrade is possible, it’d be a good move.
My Dad had several of these trolleys over the years tyres and inner tubes were always a weakness.
The wires from the charge controller to the circuit breaker are to tight if you drop something heavy you could hurt the charge controller or the circuit breaker or both
My hero
Use the whole length of the blade, the saw hasn’t only got 6 teeth in the middle….
as my woodwork teacher used to say 😊
Whenever I see these diy builds I wonder how these compare capacity wise and cost vs a the likes of a ecoflow product
This DIY is completely repairable. Store bought power stations are great but not repairable.
I lean heavily towards building a diy like you, I am just curious how they compare, im bet the diy version will outperform at a good savings kw hr / $. I'm just surprised that I've never seen the comparison. Anyways thanks for these videos, I have a small off grid shed I'm building and will use these as reference.
All my saws can't cut a perfect line... I don t understand how you did... maybe I must change them
You need to use pressure and see where the saw is leaning to cut. So my saw wants to cut left and that is why I press it to the right side when sawing.
Don’t you need a small sewing kit (just some needles and thread. And a tick-tweezer? In the med-kit?
Small sewing kit is in my first aid kit. Tweezer on my swiss army knife
@@SurvivalLilly oh yeah indeed I forgot about the tweezers on the knife👍🏻
You must've stayed at a Holiday Inn last night.
💜
Very nice job but it is not a good idea to place electrical equipment in a woden box....
💯👍👍
Certain that writing on the battery charging voltage 29.4 volts is just killers, it is to make it last less and give more capacity, I can't imagine at what voltage the BMS disconnects, 29.4 volts are equivalent to 3.67 volts per cell, it is madness, I can advise not to exceed 3,5 V maximum 3,55 volts per cell, then stop charging at 28 volts 28.5 maximum, even if better 28V, as minimum discharge voltage 24Volt 23.5Volt maximum, also if better not to go below 24 V, at least in this way they will have a longer useful life in cycles
was expecting somethin with planets.
You need 2 RCDs for 2 sockets, and it is not a tn system without a grounding rod
Nope you need one 1 RCD and 2 breakers
And nope, the rcd is working even without grounding rod. The same system is used for campervans btw. Nobody grounds the chassis of a campervan.
@@SurvivalLilly it is a question about safety level. Without a grounding rod, the system is not tn (terra/ground, neutral). If it is not in tn system, there is electric hazard if both of the loads fails.
❤ hello from British Columbia Canada
🇨🇦🖐❤👍🏞🌳🚐🌲🤳🌍
Instead of buying Ferrule's and a crimper why not just coat the strands with solder?
The solder can break if you screw the screws on the wire too hard. Also a ferrule is super cheap. Also, who has time to solder each wire? It would take like 5 hours to solder these thick wires properly.😅
@@SurvivalLilly propane torch and silver solder.
Needs a side rifle holder...just saying
Easy Rider Rifle Rack. Ha ha
What ever happened to the van build ?
You Tuber @jay legere is in an interesting situation. He is in a mandatory evacuation from Yellowknife, NWT Canada. So, he is currently "bugged out" onto Crown Land. Really having to use your preps is a good way to find any deficiencies.
