Hi folks,
I'm a trustee for an amateur radio repeater system... basically two-way radio equipment that sits at a remote site. I'm researching replacing our old lead-acid batteries with LiFePo4, BMS, and charger.
Is there a BMS that allows some sort of remote Internet access? Or at least has a built in web page for control/monitor? The phone bluetooth apps are great if you're local at the site, but we need to be able to monitor the system and kill power to the repeater remotely. We are investigating Arduino and Raspberry Pi based custom systems, but we'd have to build in a lot of the functionality that already exists in the BMS. I hate re-inventing the wheel.
I understand the networking around it- we have that part of it under control. I just need a BMS that can do more than Bluetooth. WiFi would be OK, but a wired network connection would be better.
Thanks!
