A laptop-cell powerwall built from salvaged 18650 cells: 14 in series by 9 in parallel, 126 cells at 3,000 mAh. 51.8 V nominal, 27 Ah, 1.4 kWh per pack. Needs a 14s BMS, spot-welded nickel strip and capacity-matched cells. A good first pack before scaling to the 5 to 10 packs a real powerwall needs.

System: 51.8V
