Good tutorial. I also use these type cells. Just a thought on your battery bank. You have 20 cells in parrallel 5000mah x 20 = 100 amps of potential current draw However your nickel nickel strip on main positive and negative wires is only capable of 3 strips @ 12 amps each = 33 amp current draw. Each 15mm wide .2mm strip can only handle 12 amps each. Also when I built my 4s 30p I used a double layer of nickel strip on the main battery and had 6 wires joined to the nuckel strip on each of the main connections 6 x 12 = 72 amps x 2 strips = 144 amp capacity rating Please rethink your connections Darren
Thanks Robin, I had shoulder surgery so unfortunately it may be another month. The batteries are going to be to much to lift for a while. In a week or two I am going to try to put a video of my best selling DIY generator. It only has a 5Lb. battery but, it is 1700wh.

Watched, subscribed, liked most of your videos, keep them coming after you’re healed up! I noticed the parts list was missing from the description of this video though, any reason in particular?
Thanks. The parts list was left out because I am still trying to get everything together. Some parts are still not available. Hopefully the world will get their act together and start making things again.
Great work. Thank you for taking the time to share. I have several of these boxes and I know that you have a smaller 1500-watt version for sale and was wondering if you sell or are planning to make these to sell as well. If so, how much does each system cost? I only ask because I am currently pricing my system. Any wisdom would be greatly appreciated.
You can go to the link below and there is a parts list of my build. You would just have to tweak it a little for the 1000watt inverter. ruclips.net/video/ifL7zZnExNI/видео.html

I have not built this yet. I will rethink the batteries. Thanks for the input.
This is awesome! When are you planning to post part 2?

No part 2?
How much would you charge someone if you built them one of those.
I no longer sell these. Sorry

The 1500watt sells local for $1600. I have a 500w that I sell for $1000
what battery box is that. I have the same battery packs from battery hookup....
I purchased the 5000mah batteries from BH. I spot welded them into a 4s 20p 100AH pack.
@@paulswoodshop395 that’s how I bought them from them. For only $40 more than buying the cells alone it was worth it
hello friend, greetings I have plans to make a solar power with a 1000w inverter with a 100 ah lithium battery. Can you make me a list of what I need?
