- In part one of this video, I built what I consider to be my best ever battery from 2800 18650 cells recovered from used laptop batteries. In this where my plans change and changed pretty drastically when I first started this build was about a year ago and since then the laws that involve installing this type of battery have changed to make me continue this type of build not legal. So rather than give up I'll step up - it's a little more cash & a little more effort but as much as I really hate some of the rules they will make my installation much safer & will reduce my very inflated insurance costs by enough to pay for all of the changes in a year or three. So well worth the effort. The plan for the shipping container was to film one epic build/move video over the next few months without telling the world first but these plans have changed so you can see me build out the shipping container and add your feedback if you so feel.

@vaguedirector_7342 4 года назад

Man these rules are harsh, thankfully all my battery builds so far have been portable and as a result don't suffer from these new rules. Seems the best way to still make your own battery systems will be to make it in a big chest and put wheels on it, although that doesn't help if you want to make a powerwall integrated into a house's mains wiring (then again doing that without an electrician was already illegal). This situation seems similar to the FPV drone hobby. When the rules become so extreme that everyone is breaking at least one of them, it becomes easy to ignore them all together.

@HBPowerwall 2 года назад

Would the 1000s of cell level fuses be considered safety?

@GM-wc9nn 4 года назад

There are some aspects of the mount I really do like, but I have serious reservations as well. The first is it seems the cells are being used as part of the mechanical structure (i.e. the weight of the pack is resting on the bottom cells). This could be asking for trouble especially when considering this second issue. A battery wall is a stationary object right? Well the unfortunate reality is this statement is only ~99.999% true. During an earthquake or other natural disturbance, I suspect there is a possibility the packs could simply fall out of the mount. Since we have little to no warning of when these types of events occur, this might pose a serious safety risk. I do like the simplicity of the design and how easy it is to swap packs in and out if needed, but the above concerns would force me to look for ways to modify it so they are addressed. Anyone have any ideas on improvements? If the mount was installed in an electrical enclosure, maybe the door could also act as a locking mechanism to prevent the bottom of the pack from kicking out? PS. Great job on using the shipping container...don’t think you’d have to worry too much about burning something down :) BTW, this is my single biggest fear with building a DIY power wall and still thinking through how to overcome it - unfortunately I don’t think my neighbors or wife would appreciate the shear beauty of a shipping container.

I moved a box similar to your box by my self, I bought 20 PVC pipes that were a foot longer than my box was wide. Laying them on the ground under the box, I was able to slide it back. Yes, I would uncover a pipe and move back behind. I had 2 sand bags to stop it from rolling too far. One in the back, one in front, move the bag to keep it from rolling back. Move the bag in back, drop in a pipe and keep going. Hardest part was getting all the pipes out from under. A floor jack did the job.
