    Lot of people posting their projects on TH-cam but they don't public thier CAD files. If does, they required for money. You did a huge project which I can't imagine to do myself. And also you have publicate to others who like me to encourage. I cannot imagine during this project how much of time, money & failures you have faced. That was made me to thumbs up & subscribe your channel. You may have all our blessings to do more and more. Thank you so much.

      John Chrysostom when doing big projects like these, there is bound to be roadblocks or something not going just right. There is no getting around it, no matter how good at electronics you are. If he managed to do this whole thing with nothing left to truoubleshoot, I would be beyond amazed.

    I have completed this project and its great. Here are some corrections for anyone interested in building this.
    3:11 It lists 2 Mini DC step down converters when most likely, only 1 will be needed. The second is use to lower the speed of a fan if it is too loud.
    3:45 make sure that you buy the correct size switch as shown here. I purchased ones that were 1/4 of the size and had to 3D print custom enclosures to make them the proper size.
    4:00 The copper strips are not needed if you spot weld the batteries. The zinc strips worked well. My power inverter also already came with heatsinks.
    4:21 he says 4 NC and 3 NO 45°C bimetal thermostats when it is actually 3 NC and 4 NO needed.
    9:18 if you are using a flexible filament for the outer bumpers, there is a remixed STL file for the ring to be printed in flexible filament. That hinge is impossible to locate.
    11:07 the hole for the USB C trigger is very large. I used tissue paper with glue to fill the hole. Hot Glue may also work. You can also shrink it in the files that is provided.
    13:49 The graphic is incorrect but the video shows the correct pin, the wire goes to the common terminal of the relay which is why he offset it to do so.
    14:08 The second pin of the switch gets used later, it goes to the relay pin shown in 19:24
    14:39 Be aware how you solder the wires to the potentiometer as a voltage gauge is mounted directly above it as seen in 15:45. 90° solder joints are what I had to use.
    15:24 The other wire of the switch goes to ground
    21:53 This isn't a correction but you can drill a hole or bore one with a soldering iron in the center of the charging coils to run one of the connectors below the board. I don't know if it helps but I copied it like seen here.

      I've completed it and posted some pictures of it in the made section in the thingiverse link provided in the summary.
      th-cam.com/video/pKnB_AYzoJQ/w-d-xo.html
      Many of the parts and components used were different than the recommended components. This was mostly due to error but I had to make them work. Unfortunately, this meant that I had to redesign many of the existing files. Thankfully all the cad files were provided and easily modified with Fusion 360.
      I got a 10 watt fast wireless charger instead of the recommended 5 watt. This will charge wireless devices twice as fast but it was larger than the recommended. The charger actually needs 9 volts instead of 5 volts to use it's full potential. I used a mini step down converter (purchased 10 by mistake) to drop the voltage from the battery down to 9 volts and soldered the power cables to the wireless charger. This way, I don't need to turn on the usb charger switch to turn on the wireless charger. I also got RGBW (additional White Light) instead of RGB and the controller was larger. These upgrades required the top compartment, and outer shell to require modification. The inset for the wireless charger circuitry had to be pushed more toward the center of the device and some of the dividers needed to be removed in the top compartment cover. The outer shell was changed too. I pushed the target circle for the charging back to it's new location, holes were relocated to match the new outputs of the lights and RGBW controller hole was changed to be more clean. I made a new switch cover and completely closed the hole that is usually on the top.
      I had to modify the IO plate a decent amount. All the text had to be enlarged and they had to be put in a bit deeper. I also had to enlarge the hole and add some cutouts for my outlet plug as my plug had side tabs, which meant that I needed no glue. I also had to lower the LED hole for the inverter my 4 mm. I literally printed about 11 or so IO face plates till it got it correct. The usb 3.0 charger I got was much smaller than the one recommended so I made a adaptor tray with a thermostat slot for the new circuitry to sit on. The CC/CV buck converter was also different and had no screw holes so I used some high power 3M double sticky tape to hold it down.
      I had a spot welder so no copper strips were needed. I had some nickel strips which I used. Fortunately my inverter already had heatsinks.
      I used some pretty good cells that tested out to be great on my iCharger 1010b+. On my first test, the capacity came out to be 17,226 mAh @ 11.1 Volts or 191.2086 Watt hours. Does it seem low? 191.21 Watt hours is about 52,000 mAh at 3.7 volts if I were to show the capacity like most scumbag sellers do.
      Only thing left is to properly print the badge.

      If he were to sell them then he would need to have a slew of outside testing done to prove that it was safe and would not interfere with other electronics. UL and/or CE listings just to start with and of course lawyers would have to get involved because they always do. That testing, the lawyers and maintaining the records would cost enough money that the cost of this would approach what you would pay for something similar from one of the standard shops. Sorry guys. Although, I do wonder if the same testing and paperwork is required if he were to sell this as a kit?

    You should spot weld the battery tabs and leaders rather than soldering them, this will not introduce a lot of heat to the cells and make the overall job look neater and professional. Also change out the LED voltage meters with a single LCD based one that can be changed by the end user to display monitored voltages and currents.
    This will reduce internal power consumption by over half of what it is currently. Also remove any non-visible LEDs from the internal PCBs as these are just using power and are not visible by the end user on the main panel. You want to eliminate as much redundant visuals and such as possible to make the battery power last as long as possible for the end user. Like exchanging the mechanical relays for solid state relays or reworking a transistorized switching system.
    Design your OWN PCBs and stop using other pre built consumer tat.. You can get everything onto ONE PCB and save a ton of space which in turn can be traded off for more battery space = more run time
    By implementing a microcrotroller you can design a system that has better control over charging and discharging, metering and monitoring, temperature control and even recording data for later download and examination similar to what a UPS does. maybe even allow the end user to set parameters for the inverter and battery levels to shut down the system or sound a warning alarm when a low level is reached.
    Ditch the USB C charging connector and use a more secure option like the USB mini or just the barrel jack.
    Include a plastic or attached rubberized safety plug for the AC socket, USB jacks and the barrel jack so moisture stays out.
    It needs a handle that can be folded away and maybe some rubber or silicone end caps for anti-shock.
    A dust filter for the fan that is of common size and easy to replace. none of that proprietary crap, consumers HATE that shit having to special order a filter and pay 2 arms and 6 legs for it..
