DIY portable, useful LiFePO4

[markopolo]

LiFePO4 can pack a punch. 3C, 5C? Let's leave fractional C behind for this experiment.

I'm going to try to make an affordable, multi-use portable LiFePO4 pack that actually takes advantage of an extraordinary feature of LiFePO4; multiple C.

I'll post photos of stuff as it arrives from China as I try to put together a portable, useful LiFePO4 pack.

Please point out any errors or any way to do anything better as this topic proceeds.

I'll start with a crimp / solder that went surprisingly well: crimp solder.JPG

6 x 10 AWG into a 1/0 lug. Crimped and soldered.

At the end of this experiment I want an affordable light weight, portable LiFePO4 pack that can power the microwave oven or coffee maker in a Class B van or your home.
