Hi

I have just finished reading this whole thread. It has been very informative, thank you. I am a first time EV'er. Still in the planning phase. I have also been considering 12 x 12v 100a Lead Crystal Batteries. Sorry to go off where this thread is now, but I have a question about your array of volt meters. When the contactor is closed for your series of batteries, do you have some diodes inline with the voltmeters for each independant battery. Shouldn't they cause a dead short in series and parallel at the same time.
