esphome-basen-bms

ESPHome component to monitor a Basen Battery Management System (Basen-BMS) via BLE

The Basen BMS is probably a rebrand of the VIP-BMS, EE-BMS, Mabru-BMS or Roamer BMS.

Credits: Thanks to @mager33 for heavily testing the early beta versions.

Supported devices

• BASEN 24V 100Ah Bluetooth (BG-24100, reported by @mager33)
• ROAMER 200SMART2 12V 200AH (200SMART2, reported by @DrRob)

Untested devices

• BASEN 24V 200Ah Bluetooth (BG-24200)
• BASEN 24V 230Ah Bluetooth (BG-24230)

Requirements

• ESPHome 2022.11.0 or higher.
• Generic ESP32 board

Installation

You can install this component with ESPHome external components feature like this:

external_components:
  - source: github://syssi/esphome-basen-bms@main

or just use the esp32-example.yaml as proof of concept:

# Install esphome
pip3 install esphome

# Clone this external component
git clone https://github.com/syssi/esphome-basen-bms.git
cd esphome-basen-bms

# Create a secrets.yaml containing some setup specific secrets
cat > secrets.yaml <<EOF
wifi_ssid: MY_WIFI_SSID
wifi_password: MY_WIFI_PASSWORD

mqtt_host: MY_MQTT_HOST
mqtt_username: MY_MQTT_USERNAME
mqtt_password: MY_MQTT_PASSWORD
EOF

# Validate the configuration, create a binary, upload it, and start logs
esphome run esp32-example.yaml
