I wanted it as small as possible, I might have picked a case that's a little too small but we'll see after I use it camping.
The blue meter has two USB outlets under the cover, the Waeco is plugged into the cigarette lighter port. I think I'll remove the switch and add an SAE port since the main circuit breaker can be used as a switch.
This meter is pretty nifty, only the basics: volts, amps, amp-hrs and percent capacity but much cheaper than a Victron. I wish I hadn't scratched up the case so much cutting the meter hole.
Finally found a use for the circuit breaker I've had for awhile.
There are 8 cells, a BMS, a 4S balancer and the meter shunt all crammed inside there. I wanted as small a package as possible so there's not much wiggle room.The battery charger says it added 52 amp-hrs on the last full charge but I'm waiting to see what the battery monitor says before I believe it. I still have some wire management to do but this is roughly what it will look like. The solar charge controller is mounted in the pickup so I can charge the truck battery as well as the LiFePO4 cells. It also keeps some heat away from the cells.
I can post links to parts if anyone is interested.
