Two ~600kg BYD E6 batteries (almost) mounted to a frame. Hard work, good work. This is about 120-160kWh of storage total. The batteries are from ex-Singaporean taxis which had done about 250,000km before crashing (the cars, not the batteries). I've owned a couple and seen plenty of 400,000km taxis with over 80% SOH so I think these batteries are likely to be plenty better.
The plan is coming together...
