I see a lot of DIY examples with ex-laptop batteries with different batteries (cells) in one pack.
would you make and use one like this? 😣😏

No F$&@G way.
I'll just read about it in the papers.
so many wrong things:
cells are mismatched, and not likely capacity matched
No BMS, no thermal management
No visible fuses or safety
Exposed bare wires
no

Major accident just waiting to happen. You might as well play with matches and gasoline.Comment

Really shocking to you see how some "proudly" show their dangerous DIY powerwall and running loads like a washing machine, fridge etc 😣😟Comment

I am not sure if you are making a joke or believe a DIY powerwall is not dangerous.Originally posted by GeorgeF View Post
If you think it is ok I guess I can show you videos of people walking on air or falling 300 feet without an injury. It must be true since it is on youtube.Comment

And just as shocking and sobering to observe how many folks believe everything the read/see/hear. Those who refer to the u-tube "idiot's bible" as support for stupidity being a good example.Originally posted by GeorgeF View PostComment

Let's look at the bigger picture: Pretty sure that a diy powerwall is or won't be covered by your homeowner's insurance.
Not only that, but if a post fire inspection reveals that your hoard of lithium trash is the actual accellerant or NOT, you could be on the hook big time. Not just for your property either.
If that weren't bad enough, civil lawsuits could be awating to take every penny you've got for the rest of your life.
Oh ok - living like a hermit in the boonies? But set fire to vast areas of the country because of it? God forbid your diy trash project kills somebody. Oh boy, maybe you can read about this project behind bars - and hopefully so.

The only way I'd touch that thing is if I had a large concrete outbuilding, far from anything flammable, that I could put it in.Originally posted by GeorgeF View Post
