Now that I have finished my 144v grid charger, I started building a 144v discharger XD. I followed the same idea than M Dabrowki and I will use a shop light. Some difference, it will be manually controlled via an on/off switch. there will be two 300w shop light plugged in serial. The discharger controll box will plug to the grid charger so the 12v fan can cool the pack during discharging and will plug to the harness in the car.

We have modified the harness to put the diode in the power supply instead. We didn't thought about a discharger in the first place so we put it in the harness, but you can't discharge if you have a diode in the harness.
