Should the ground wire for the chassis of electrical equipment go right to the vehicle chassis or can it go to the neative bus?

Just to say thanks and we do use the resources you put so much effort in to giving us...

Greetings. I would like to connect an ignition sense wire to my Kisae DMT 1250 and I am wondering if I can use a "Trailer brake ignition feed" for that purpose. It has a10 amp fuse. I only want to draw < 1 amp, the fuse value specified by Kisae. I can't find a pure "sense" location. Input...

I have continued to agonize over my inverter purchase because of cost, size, weight and quality. The common opinion on many threads is that the inverter/chargers economically make use of the same functions for two diametrically opposed purposes. The inverter/chargers weigh 20-25 lbs more than...

So my BMS is last resort save the cells BMS. Is there a simple way to protect my other equipment from voltage spikes in the event of a disconnect event? How do you trigger latching relays or contactors with a BMS that does not that kind of capability? Would I have to buy a more expensive...

The installation manual for the solar charge controller says do not install above batteries...why? Is it ok to install other components like the dc fuse block, breakers, or shunt on the panel above the cells. The fortune cells have plastic covers so no terminals are exposed. Maybe it was to...

I have new fortune 100 cells, Will says top balance but in other videos of Will and others, they say bottom balance....could we, should we, do both, top and bottom balance?

Greetings. I have 8 new fortune 100 amp hour cells to build a 200 amp hour battery. Yesterday I ordered a regulated power supply and a meter so I can top balance the cells. I also ordered a capacity tester but it ships from China and won't be here before October....given the current events...

Beginner here, thanks for all of your help. Is it better to connect my charge controller directly to my diy lithium batteries or can I use the same 250 amp positive bus bar that my 12 vdc distribution panel and inverter are going to be connected to? All with individual fusing between bus bar...
