With the price of batteries being fluid and most people may be thinking of building their own batteries to save on retail battery costs, which is the largest cost in any solar system.
You will find that at RenewSolar the prices for retail and DIY do not differ that much. Some of you buying a battery ready made could be easier and more cost effective, and for those who want to attempt to make their own battery we will provide a full kit.
RenewSolar are offering 2 DIY battery kits, a 15kwh and the 5.1kwh, the cells come from our trusted suppliers and these are 100ah and and 280ah This means that you should get 105ah and 302ah. Please report back your cell capacity or battery capacity after you have your battery built. – in the comments below.
You have everything you need to build a 5.12kwh battery. == 5.4Kwh
This is a stackable battery – note the kit comes with “normal” terminals to allow lug connections. This will make the costs less and much more easier for installation and connection to other packs.
There is a JK BMS (with active balancer) -200a – Note you need to set this to 100a. for he 5kwh and 150a for the 15kwh
The 15kwh battery is more like the video I have shown to give you a better idea of what they are like. The video it not the same brand, but you should get the idea as they are all pretty much the same.
The DIY 5kwh kit is around £807.00 the 15kwh is around £1,666.00
The prices will vary depending on the commodity price and exchange rates at the time you order. So it is likely that we will link orders together and give a price at that time. We are expecting a price drop shortly.
Please note that there could be long waiting times on these as we will not keep many in stock (UK Stock) we may keep more in our Euro stock. and in the Euro supply chain but this can often lead to a shorter delay. it is the case kits that are causing the delay, we have no issues with battery cell delays and these are delivered in around 3 days.
Custom batteries are available to order. We offer a wide range of batteries and option which are NOT shown on the website, this can be HV and various capacity and types.
