Ended up buying a used Pi wit ICM that have the JK bms option and it is working now.

Good day. Yes that one. What is your price on it?

Looking for an used Pi preloaded with ICM that has JK bms listed under the battery options.

No until now I could not get ICM to work with my JK bms. Some ICM versions have JK listed under their batteries but mine don't have it. I tried every protocol that I could that is available but could not get it working. I am running on inverter values at the moment but nothing displays correctly in ICM. The only values that I can use is the battery voltage and charge, discharge amperage as well as the Kw going in and out. With the voltage I am at least able to set the back to pv and grid values through ICM. The problem is that the back to grid voltage cannot be adjusted above 48v and that gives me 10% SOC on the batteries which is lower than what I would prefer but at leadt it is working. I looked around for alternative software but none comes close to ICM. If I were a coder maybe it would be another story but for me ICM was bought and used from the shelve and it worked veru good except now for the change to the JK bms. With Manie that passed and not knowing the future of the company I will try to buy a used ICM together with its pi that has the JK bms option and see if that works. But before 2031 I need to find another solution because then ICM licence stops there.

No I am running ICM. A very nice program and was working very good with my Pylontech batteries. I just need to the program to read the Jk bms now.

Good day Yes I received them. I received them on the 25th of November. I was very impressed with the packaging. It was packaged in the original boxes and then everything was anclosed in a wooden crate. There was no damages to the crate and therefore the cells inside the boxes is in perfect condition. I have put the batteries together and cell voltages looks very good. I am trying now to get the JK PB2A16S-20P bms to talk to the Raspberry Pi on my system. Except for the long wait for delivery which seems to be our customs fault I am very pleased with the service I received from this company in China. Minji was always professional and ready to help. I will buy from them again.

There is no communication on this side to get information. Only information comes from asking the sales person in China who in turn contacts the shipping agent who replies that its normal don't worry the order must remain for some time at customs.

That is really bad. I expected 45 to 50 days as promised and this is already a month overdue. What worries me a lot is the possibility of this container standing in the sun the whole day while the cells overheat to (don't want to think about it) extreme temperatures.

Good day. Can you tell me how long shipping took? My order left China around the 30th of August and the ship arrived in Durban on the 5th of October which gives me around 40 days. The ship left Durban on the 10th of october. The cells are still in customs and today is the 10th of november. That means the cells are in customs now for 25 days. This makes the whole experience 15 days from time of onder till shipping then 40 days at sea, 5 days for offloading and another 25 in customs which brings it to 80 days from day of order with still no delivery date. Did you have the same experience?

His name is Minji Guan and up to now he gave very good feedback and responses.

Good day. I am in the process of ordering from this same guy when I saw this thread. GJ Cronje can you tell me if your previous order was from the same guy and did you receive your Hitium cells already? He has send me photos of boxes being delivered at a warehouse in Herman str in Meadowdale in Edenvale. In one of the photos there are a k& L courier truck with GP number plates. Is that the warehouse where you picked yours up. Thanks
