May 7, 20242 yr I'm using a EASUN ISolar-SMH-II-2.2K inverter as the power source in my camper. This seems to be a axpert mks clone, it can be configured with WatchPower software, etc. The camper does not have wifi, internet, etc. but I have suited a nice android tablet especially made for cars as my central radio set and navigation system. Now I want power data (solar and battery voltage, solar power, etc.) on this tablet as well. Off course I could install a RPi clone that connects to the inverter and collects data, stores it in a database, create nice graph's, but in fact I don't need that much. I consider adding a serial2bt adapter to have a virtual serial connection to my inverter. What I miss is a android app, that connects to that BT converter and queries data from the inverter, just like watchpower does. Is there any known product or homemade app out there? I found some posts on github regarding Axperts and BT, but it seems nobody really finished the work.
May 8, 20242 yr Honestly, Solar Assistant is what you're looking for but I've yet to see a free /open source alternative that's easy to set up and fuss free to work with Edited May 8, 20242 yr by madness_za
