The battery bank is the heart of the system.

 

 Its components usually take up the most space and all other subsystems connect to it.

 

 That’s 

why  we  recommend  installing  it  first.

 

  This  battery  bank  consists  of  a  200Ah  Lithium  Battery.

 

  The  Bluetooth  battery  monitor  reads  all 

charging and discharging current through a shunt

 

and is able to interpret that data to compute battery usage, remaining energy, percent 

charge, etc.

 

 When a shunt is used, the load side of the shunt becomes the new negative battery terminal and no negatives will connect to 

the actual battery.
