2 years ago Hi, I am glad to hear it works for you. Regarding plugins, it can probaly be done if it uses BLE. However, "somebody" need to decode the protocol it uses, and add the appropriate functions.

2 years ago @Olen, you might consider updating the documentation that this works with controllers compatible with the Renogy BT-1 module. It appears to be the same as SolarLink for the most part. We were only able to find this project by searching for some of the BT-1 UUIDs published and noticed that it works great! I can submit a PR to add some of the Renogy documentation based on my usage.

2 years ago Updated the README now.
Also committed a few minor fixes that was running in my "production" environment, but had not been pushed here.

2 years ago yes, great monitor! Also got it working with my BT-1 device. Anyway you can increase the decimal places/significant digits of the current values? for example, it would be nice to see the value as 0.43 vs 0.4 amp.

2 years ago Has anyone been successful reading a Rover Elite 40 with BT-2? Reading through the thread, I can't tell what success people have been having with BT-2. I can connect but it immediately disconnects and I get no results. I see a lot of "ping" requests every couple minutes but no data. I'm a Linux guy but not at all python. Here's what I get:

Did you ever get the BT-2 working (like the BT-1 does)?

1 year ago Just some spring cleanup of old issues.
I have this working with Renogy controller and works great! thank you! I see it can also monitor batteries BMS but i have Xiaoxiang BMS will this work with that BMS? I did try to connect to the batteries but failed. could a plugin be added for Xiaoxiang?
