SmartLithium Balancer Status #25

Closed H3xF2x closed 8 months ago

H3xF2x commented 10 months ago

Hello,

for my SmartLithium Batteries I found the following definition forbalancer_status:

0 - unkonwn (need to charge once to 100%) 1 - balanced / ok 2 - balancing 3 - inbalanced

I hope you find this information useful

Thanks @H3xF2x for your input. I have added the balancer status as text sensor.

Can you please validate that it is working correctly?

Thanks

H3xF2x commented 10 months ago

You're welcome.

The text sensor is working, thanks for implementing. Unfortunately at the moment both batteries are balanced, so it could take serveral weeks until one battery needs to be balanced again. I will keep an eye on it.

BTW: The temperature readout on a Lynx BMS returns always a 127 / unknown. Maybe you would like to add a note on this in the readme.

I will try to find more missing details.

I added a validation for the temperature sensor and a node to the readme. At least ESP Home should report NAN now.

I can confirm that the latest update works for me.
