i think he means the arrangement of the cells - either have to be 8 in a row or 4 x 4 i would think and the balance rings on each cell - its the same as my ADD ONs would be since those are 8 cells also

if i understand correctly -

this 4 x 4 - i think this is how they will be built - dont worry about those power cables having two cables - the balance wires will be this way -

8 in a row would be the easiest - but either way - if you start off at the Neg. side - 0 the black and then 1 on the pos of the same cell

then work your way cell to cell - next cell pos 2 etc etc, its gets more confusing with more cells and arrangements but same idea.

Everyone goes through this. Cant be done too complicated. Doesent look as complicated as I thought. I may be able to do this. I might do this and am looking into it. Drinks beer, decides to go for this risky brave complex project. Worries. And in the end you dont even think about it as you have learned how it all works, seen it and used it, and know you can do another, fix it etc.

In the end it doesent matter. Even if you totally screw it up. Because the value of what you learned and skills aquired, is worth the cost alone. But you wont screw it up, but may struggle a bit initially.

When Shirley had that horrible graph, I thought oh s**t. But then I thought what I’ve learnt so far has value. Plus the social interaction of this forum has value.
