I ordered my Renogy charge controller and panel from HD. Although I didn't have a problem with the order process, I did have a problem with delivery. Components are shipped directly from Renogy and at least in our area, it comes via FedEx which is where the nightmare happens. They lost the...
Great Project! I've got this working with a Renogy Rover Elite MPPT. I also hacked a "splitter" together so I can run the BT-2 module as well as the Pi.
I'm still playing around with the data I want to collect using the Renogy modbus documentation and the graph layouts but I'm getting...
Does anyone have a working system including solar-monitor, HomeAssistant and showing graphs with Granfana? I'm trying to build it all and it's a kludge trying to tie it all together. Just looking for a howto to see what I'm missing. I got as far as seeing data on MQTT in HomeAssistant but...

I just disconnected the BT-2 and turned off Bluetooth on my phone and iPad. Made sure the app wasn't open anywhere and then tried to connect with the Pi. Same thing. connect/discover name/disconnect
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...
