Up to now I used my smartphone to watch either the VRM portal or the remote console on the status of my ESS system. But I always wanted to have a simple solution to watch the most important data of the setup, like SoC, PV power and actual battery charge/load power to decide if it makes sense to star…

Agreed, without any programming knowledge it is definitely the simplest way to go. This was also my solution up to now, I had an old Nexus 7 which couldn’t show the new v2 GUI anymore and barely worked with v1. I spent a lot of time to get it somehow working stable (freezes requiring hard resets/un…

Nice project. Many thanks for sharing your work.

Yep, thanks for that comment. I suppose that’s also what @Ludo meant. I tried this as well with my Nexus. But as it is written there: “it is recommended to use a modern Android version as it has not been tested with older devices”. It shows the initial setup screen, when I try then to connect to the…

I have a solution for me and don’t need another one, everyone interested in that can use my code I presented here, that was the only purpose of my post. :slight_smile: But to answer, of course - who does not know node-red. :wink: I use node-red for some automation tasks locally on the Cerbo. I al…

Great achievement! I like to have more GPIOs. May be also with a large display 3.5" like ESP32 3.5 tft 480 320 touch Is your code easy to be running on the following product? https://nl.aliexpress.com/item/1005007566332450.html

Neat, I like it! :+1: It has a capacitive touch with glass display instead of a resistive one with plastics and a nice case to mount it e.g. in a kitchen door or so, so no need for a 3D print (would have been my next task). But ok, it is also a bit more than double the price to the CYD - but still …

Nice that you will be able to port it to S3 version. I will order this board using my link above ‘aliexpress’ soon. Keep this post up to date because this post will be closed after 14 days. Refreshing this post within 2 weeks is needed.

Thanks you so much for sharing this. As someone who is just getting into this, your post is very interesting. Using an old mobile could also be interesting for me, if I knew how.
