thanks glen, i have 2 sizes of hydraulic crimpers and lots of cable ends up to 4/0. i have a 250amp bms i put a clamp on amp meter on the lift before i took the old batteries out and the most i got was a peak of 150 amps. so i am hoping i am ok. i finished top balancing them this afternoon and made some rubber mats for the bottom of the battery tray which was pretty trashed from battery acid. i cleaned and painted it forst.
did you worry about weight and balance? the 4 old batteries weigh probably 200lbs and this 8 cell unit i built is probably 60lbs. not really any place to put any wight by the time i put the bms and victron charger in there.
