First Build - Any Advice?

I am mounting this 6S3P pack (18 cells total, split into two 9 cell groups) to the bottom of my fan. Currently I have 2x 3S3P packs that I plan to mount on the fan rim on the outside. I will PVC wrap them before mounting, just looking for advice before I seal them up. I am going to mount the BMS inside the fan housing and run the wire through the gromets. Voltage reads exactly 10.56 on both 9 cell packs, so good to go there in terms of balance before connecting them.

Just want any pointers before I seal up the packs and start the wiring.

I am also going to mount two more packs on the top of the fan to balance it out, just waiting on batteries. The reason I have the packs split like this is so they don't contact the base bracket of the fan when moving the fan around. Else I'd have just done 18x cells in a 6S3P row. I had to split them for clearance. I also have to have the packs curved, so I used a 18AWG wire where the curved parts are so the wire flexes unlike the nickel strips.

Total power draw from the fan at max speed is 22V and less than 1A.
