The Victron App itself is lacking.
It’s clean, runs great, and changing the settings is easy, but it doesn’t log any data over time. Its just an instantaneous readout. But that’s no fault of the Bluetooth adaptor.
I needed this because my inverter has a default low battery cutoff that is way too low and so I was relying on my battery BMS to shut the batteries down. Set the inverter to 47v cutoff and no more does the inverter put my batteries to sleep (default cutoff was 37v to 43.6v).
1 disadvantage is that the "TRENDS" on victron app doesn't have history of all voltages and current parameters.
history summary works for 30 days Back so it is still pretty good
While for my current purposes the eco mode isn't going to be usable, I'm still happy I got the dongle because I can easily verify that the system is working as expected (ie, I'm not draining the battery too far, and the load is still there in a reasonable range) just by checking my phone.
I could say that $50 for a BT dongle is pricey.. and yeah it is. I was thinking that they could've just as easily put a USB outlet on the inverter, right? TBH though the inverter isn't "smart" so you can't just throw a USB port on it; this dongle is more than just a BT interface - it's BT *plus* the smarts to measure the load and voltages as well as provide the app an interface over that BT.
Regardless, the inverter didn't cost an arm and a leg and being able to get the info so easily semi-remotely (I can use the app from more than 50' away) makes this quite worthwhile.
Granted this is for my solar powered sliding gate. Batteries are in a metal box.
Purchased the Victron shunt. Bluetooth range was the same. Attached this VE Direct dongle and placed the unit outside the metal battery box.
Range is now approximately 150 ft. I can monitor the battery from inside my house which is brick, and from my back yard.
Excellent product.
The TBD would work if you don't need the range.
