Hi, friends! JK-B2A8S20P HW V11.XA SW V11.48 is supporting? Can i connect this BMS directly over GPS port to Wemos D1 RX-TX pins, do I need to install any converter? Or can this BMS only be connected via BlueTooth?

Thanks in advance!

Both is supported in general. Some BMS models doesn't want to talk to a ESP8266. If it doesn't work out of the box please try a ESP32 for comparison.

@syssi, thanks! Wemos D1 not communicate with BMS at all. I`ll try ESP32-Wroom later...

@syssi Worked as it should be with ESP32-Wroom over GPS port. Big thanks for your great work. ;)
