Lithium Project is a Go!

[Rurki]

I thought I had everything in, but forgot the copper busbars. So waiting till they arrive to complete the pack this coming weekend. I have the diagram provided for the Leaf build, but am cautious when connected batteries. I will be triple checking the connections before I bolt them in :)

Before:

Removed 400lbs of batteries and cut the battery hold down off.
Sanded the rush and sprayed it with Rustoleum before creating the base.

I created 22x10 inserts for the bottom of the battery box, then filled the space with 2 inch angle iron for support. Afterward I bolted a 22x20 piece of aluminum for the deck. Its solid as a rock and easily supports my 210 lbs.

Following the extremely detailed guild created by MCJEFE and I'm slowly and nervously building the pack. Thanks to cmysstailights for the 3D printed terminal covers, they fit perfectly.

May be a stupid question, but is there a particular series of terminals that need to be connected first? Left to right, top terminal? Don't want to short anything out, so being very careful.
