Finally got some OK weather, and at least I got the new shunt and disconnect installed. At least a couple of things off the list.

With this setup, I can fully (finally) disconnect the negative leads that come directly from the batteries. I can now store the unit properly without worrying about the batteries being discharged (other than the slight internal discharge).

The display still needs to be calibrated. It's nice to actually have data logging (part of the app) so I can see charging/discharging behavior.

Parts list:

400amp WonVon shunt (going to add more batteries) and display.

High current switch

Had to buy a new tool, a hydraulic crimper.

I still have to redo all the wiring and mount the display. Once that's done, might be able to squeeze another battery in there.

For now having a way to disconnect the batteries for storage is major win.

Did find something in the process, the cables coming up through the floor from the batteries were poorly sealed, can see daylight. Poor job of applying the foam sealer.
