Apex Vertical V3 Floor-Standing DIY 51.2V Battery Box for 16 LiFePO4 Cells
Short answer: This USA-stock Apex Vertical V3 is a floor-standing enclosure kit for building a 16S, 51.2V LiFePO4 battery. It includes a preinstalled JK PB2A16S20P V19 200A BMS, 2A active balancing, 4.3-inch touchscreen, main internal wiring, M8 output terminals and a 200A DC circuit breaker. Battery cells are not included.
Quick check before ordering: Confirm the dimensions and terminal layout of your 16 cells, your inverter brand and model, and whether you need Texas pickup or inland US delivery. Contact Jenny if you want us to check the cell fit and communication plan before payment.

What Is the Apex Vertical V3 Battery Box Designed For?
The Apex Vertical V3 is intended for experienced DIY builders and qualified installers who want a self-contained floor-standing enclosure for home solar storage, backup power, off-grid workshops, farms or other stationary energy-storage projects.
- 16S, 51.2V nominal LiFePO4 battery projects
- Home solar energy storage and backup power
- Off-grid workshops, farms and stationary ESS projects
- Single-pack systems or carefully engineered multi-pack installations
This is a component kit, not a finished battery. Cell selection, cell matching, terminal torque, insulation, system protection, inverter settings and final commissioning remain the installer’s responsibility.

Cell-fit note: Capacity alone does not confirm compatibility. Cell length, width, height, terminal spacing, terminal type and busbar alignment must match the current enclosure layout.
Preinstalled JK 200A BMS, Touchscreen and Communication
The current USA-stock configuration uses a preinstalled JK PB2A16S20P V19 200A BMS with 2A active balancing. The 4.3-inch touchscreen, 200A DC breaker and main internal wiring are also preinstalled to reduce repetitive enclosure assembly work.
Bluetooth supports local monitoring through the JK app. CAN, RS485 and RS232 are available for system communication. Inverter compatibility depends on the exact inverter model, protocol, firmware and cable pinout. A communication port does not guarantee plug-and-play compatibility with every inverter.

What Is Included and What Is Not Included?
Included in the Vertical V3 Kit
- Vertical floor-standing metal enclosure and cover set
- Preinstalled JK PB2A16S20P V19 200A BMS
- Preinstalled 4.3-inch touchscreen and communication wiring
- Preinstalled 200A DC circuit breaker
- M8 positive and negative output terminals
- Main internal wiring supplied with the current kit
Not Included
- Sixteen LiFePO4 battery cells
- Inverter, charger or complete solar-energy system
- A fuse; the confirmed protection device is the 200A DC circuit breaker
- Optional external cables or accessories unless selected on the product page

Can Multiple Apex Vertical V3 Batteries Be Connected in Parallel?
Up to 15 completed battery packs may be used in parallel when the batteries have matched cell type and capacity, compatible BMS firmware and settings, coordinated communication, correctly sized equal-length cables, suitable busbars and overcurrent protection, and a system design approved for the intended current. Do not mix unmatched batteries or assume that physical installation alone makes a parallel system ready to operate.
Assembly and Safety Planning
- Use matched cells with a consistent state of charge before series connection.
- Confirm cell orientation, polarity and busbar alignment before tightening.
- Use the cell manufacturer’s specified terminal torque.
- Keep insulation barriers in place and protect tools from accidental short circuits.
- Configure charge, discharge and temperature limits for the actual cells used.
- Have a qualified installer review grounding, cable sizing, overcurrent protection and inverter settings before commissioning.
Texas Pickup and Inland USA Delivery

Delivery eligibility and final shipping arrangements depend on the destination address. Confirm islands, remote areas and special-access destinations before payment.
Choose the Right Docan DIY Battery Format
Choose the Apex Vertical V3 when you want a floor-standing enclosure. If you prefer a horizontal stackable layout, compare the USA-stock Apex S3 stackable DIY battery box. Buyers who do not want to install cells can browse complete LiFePO4 battery packs, while current warehouse listings are available under USA Stock.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are battery cells included with the Apex Vertical V3 kit?
No. This listing is for the enclosure kit and its preinstalled control components. Sixteen LiFePO4 cells must be purchased separately.
Which LiFePO4 cells fit this vertical battery box?
The enclosure is intended for 16pcs 3.2V prismatic LiFePO4 cells, including common 280Ah, 302Ah, 304Ah, 314Ah, 320Ah and 330Ah formats. Complete cell dimensions and terminal layout must be checked before ordering.
What BMS is installed?
The current USA-stock configuration includes a preinstalled JK PB2A16S20P V19 200A BMS with 2A active balancing.
Does the kit include a touchscreen?
Yes. A 4.3-inch touchscreen is preinstalled.
Which communication interfaces are available?
The current configuration provides CAN, RS485, RS232 and Bluetooth. Inverter communication still depends on the exact protocol, firmware and cable pinout.
Does the kit include a fuse?
No. The confirmed protection device is a preinstalled 200A DC circuit breaker. A fuse is not included.
Does the kit use M8 output terminals?
Yes. The current configuration uses M8 positive and negative output terminals.
Are the BMS, touchscreen and breaker preinstalled?
Yes. The BMS, touchscreen, DC breaker and main internal wiring are preinstalled. The buyer still needs to install and connect the cells and complete all final checks.
