Single Chip BMS Research + DALY Pin Compatible BMS's

Finally success.
Now I can share my data via the server. It took me almost as long to set up this s*** as it took me to build iot from scratch

That was so much pain.

When you do it
* Use the app
* Log into YOUR wifi router, not ITS hotspot
* Give it your password (c o u g h)
* Then it magically just happens

What is going on is the phone app is backdooring the dongle and stuffing your SSID and Password. After that, if you already set up your online accounts, BAM. Data in the cloud.

So sketch
You can literally change current limits remotely

* I'm removing the dongle

Ok, back to BMS's
I need one, like yesterday.

Point of all that?

* If you wanted to hack the GroWatt protocol, all you would have to do is sniff the UART

The interface between the WiFi dongle and the Inverter is USB. If you inspect closely you will see it converts to UART. If you simply attach GND and TX to the GND and RX of an Arduino and pick the correct baud, you can start spilling ONE SIDE of that communication to the terminal, where you can later parse it.

If you use a second arduino, or a second uart port, you can then grab the other side of the communication. OBVIOUSLY it is easier if you synchronize them (L O L) and I suggest doing it on a heartbeat. I.E. if you just log the ASYNC data you will have no way to line it up. If you instead log against a heartbeat you can line the two data streams up.

You then initiate
* Like sending a command

You then watch the 5 or 15 back and forths

Now you have a backdoor into the GroWatt - and - this may be at the AT command level or .... right? Because it is a standard WiFi nugget they have on there. The USB is THAT interface, the one between the actual WiFi node and the uProcessor, so that means

* That the language being spoken will comply with the datasheet of the WiFi "chip"
* I.E. that is what all the garble is wrapped around the snips of data you want

-methods
 
And
remember that I already posted a GitHub link to someone who re-programmed the WiFi dongle and hacked it to send to MQTT instead of the Jenky-ass GroWatt servers

C O U G H

Which is E X A C T L Y what I was wanting to do some many months back, so thank you to that person. Now we can use our own IoT to bang-bang with the SPF 5000 ES with far less worry about some clown logging in and changing Current Limits (barf).

* GroWatt Servers - big target
* methods super one-off IoT bungle, H A!

Nobody is ever going to waste the time or energy, if they could even find it among the trillions of other smart devices out there.

Ok, so on a hit like this I am seeing no mention of how high you can stack these. That is a very important factor, and a great sign of reliability. AFAICT, this 4S BMS can stack 16S

lets compare costs
