My final solution for my big power bank was to just not use 1s.
I went with 6s, and used USB outlets designed for cars and ATVs that can handle up to 24v nominal (28v max) input like these ones:

The higher voltage means that you get 6x more energy into the pack at a given charge rate - a 1A charger is 25 watts, instead of 4.
Also it means the chargers can output more power - The one I have can do USB-PD and QC3.0 up to like 60 watts or something, so it could charge a laptop or tablet much faster than a 5v-only charger.

Looks like a generic smart BMS to me - I think I used one just like it from aliexpress a few years ago.

True.
Iâm so happy for @Lee_Wright for having the forethought to put his sticker on the BMS before selling them.

Isopropyl alcohol would be fine to clean off cells right?

Try to get a high concentration so you donât have to worry about water rusting anything.
I have 99.9% in a spray bottle, ready to clean any surfaces off. If I touch nickel a lot while cutting it to shape I will wipe them off. If I donât, I can see smoke of skin oils burning off when welding. It also helps cleaning up flux that splatters.

anyone know??
A search should turn up a bunch of recommendations as I remember several people posting with their thoughts on the ones they use.

No looks IT IS thay just buy them and stock then in the uk. Just like 99% of stuff you buy from a shop. Tho the QR code is a idea from a forum member thay incorporated to get the wiring diagrams.

Hey fellas just wanna make sure Iâm correct here before finalizing my bms wiring. The LLT smart bms has 2 each of B- and C- traces. I believe based on the diagram provided by the manufacturer that for a charge only circuit the main neg terminal goes into the bottom B- and then is attached on the other side to the bottom C- (as below) which would then terminate in an xt30 along w the wire from main pos terminal for the charge port to attach to. The other 2 traces are for discharge. Is this correct?
Both terminals are the same, they are directly connected i believe. brb checking with multimeter.
Edit: Yes they are. Doesnât matter where you connect to, upper or lower.
