Hello!

Understanding that this is indeed about battery management systems (BMS) and not about gas level sensors (I should not have ticked the 2nd tick box 🫢), I hope that my question here does not annoy you. If it does, please kindly delete my post and forgive me.

My question is if you think it is possible to hook into a Bluetooth gas level sensor like from Truma or Mopeka? I have one from Truma, and there does not seem to be any HA integration for it. I can read the level (in % and kg gas) with Truma's native Android app ("Level Control"), and I can see the sensor (attached to the bottom of the gas bottle) via the Android app "nRF Connect", which is a very powerful tool regarding BLE (incl. server mode), but its possibilities are way beyond my capabilities, I'm afraid.

Describe the solution you'd like

If you see a way how I could dig deeper into this, I would welcome your hints pointing me into the right direction.

Please accept my apologies that this is not really a feature request. I posted this here, because I was not sure how else I could ask you. And you seem to know already a lot about BLE. 👍

Hi! Well if there is an app and a visibility in nRF Connect it shouldn't be too hard to get it integrated. Depending on the structure of the device (passive or active connections) you probably are better off with ble_monitor. Can you post raw data of the advertisement button raw on the first screen and if you can connect to the device the information about the characteristics? Then I can give you some hints. Spoiler: I can't do another integration I'm already working on a second one and maintenance will kill me.

Thanks a lot! I'll look into it when I'm back.
