Using solid busbars instead of cables to connect battery modules. I should have gone with 16mm bars!

Off-Grid Garage

So, here is a bit of DIY work again and I have started working on this idea to use square busbars to connect the SEPLOS Polo battery modules instead of cables. The links are only 150mm apart so I thought getting a 20x20mm aluminium bus bar was a good idea. A bit of filing and they would fit in between these terrible terminals SEPLOS has chosen for these batteries.
Well, turns out, it took me a while to file these bus bars down. But I really like the result and function... So the only bad idea here was not choosing the 16mm bus bar.
