BMS is 8S 100A Overkill. I've got some 1/0 awg left over from my last small build. And I've got some 3/0 awg that's new. Have not seen any recommendations except what comes with most BMS's. Just trying to get some free advice.Depends on wire temperature rating and the BMS’s specs
So you need a 125A Class T on the battery and your 1/0 will work fine although it will be ‘big’ (non-issue)BMS is 24v 100A Overkill. I've got some 1/0 awg left over from my last small build. And I've got some 3/0 awg that's new.
I oversize battery cables and have for many years. 1/0 is already oversizedI'm going with 3/0 awg after talking to Troy at Overkill.
What is the inverter wattage and charging amps?

I would only add to what you said if the inverter is bigger than 4000 watts thevinverter could pull more than 100 amps, and if so, than could be a good idea to plan thicker wire for an additional battery pack.For a 100A delivery is what I understood
Yup. But his bms will shut him off like an Irish pub keeper shuts off the guy who’d caught his wife with his best friend.I would only add to what you said if the inverter is bigger than 4000 watts thevinverter could pull more than 100 amps, and if so, than could be a good idea to plan thicker wire for an additional battery pack.
My inverter is the Samlex EVO 2224.What is the inverter wattage and charging amps?

Just fuse or breaker it for the load.I think you're right and 1/0 awg from the old build would be enough. Thank you for the chart.
