  Good to see you taking safety seriously in this build—unlike Upsidedownfork!<br><br>I recently decided to skip the pre-built, closed-ecosystem setups (especially after the GivEnergy debacle) and went the DIY route with open tech. Just ordered a 32 kWh setup:<br><br>Cells: EVE 314 Ah Grade A (guaranteed output tested around 340 Ah)<br><br>BMS: JK BMS 16S with integrated heat pads<br><br>Protection: 2 custom enclosures with internal fuses &amp; RCCBs<br><br>Looking forward to seeing how your Stream 5000 holds up over the long-term test!

  Great video, I have to say it&apos;s a tad annoying to see loads of youtube folk being given these systems when I&apos;ve ordered mine and paid for it but don&apos;t yet know when it&apos;ll be delivered. Can&apos;t wait for it to be delivered so I can get it installed as my firat step into Solar and battery.

  I want to get one of these for the shed to replace the grid tied inverter. We have a freezer in there and it can do exactly what i have now but can offer power to the freezer in a grid down situation. Protect the food, the worlds going nuts

  Oh no. &nbsp;I&apos;ve invested in the Ultra X and 2 AcPros after watching reviews on various channels, including yours, and now I find out it was probably a mistake because of all the conversions from DC to AC and back again so many times. &nbsp;If only the 5000 had been announced 6 months ago. &nbsp;I don&apos;t think I can afford to upgrade. &nbsp;Damn it.

  Another great video, because you now have all 3 systems EcoFlow, jackery and Anker all setup and working I be interested in the pros and cons of these systems and which one comes out in front of the others or are they all good. This would be very helpful to everyone
