For batteries with official support, we have ProductIds that identify the battery.
There are however many well-working batteries in the field that are detected simply as "Generic CAN-bms" batteries, ProductId 0xB007.
The purpose of logging the identification strings, namely manufacturer and family (rarely used), is so we can see what other batteries are popular/common.
