Pylontech Battery Monitoring via WiFi

This project allows you to control and monitor Pylontech US2000B batteries via console port over WiFi. It it's a great starting point to integrate battery with your home automation.

Features:

  • Low cost (around 20$ in total).
  • Adds WiFi capability to your Pylontech US2000B battery.
  • Device exposes web interface that allows to:
    • send console commands and read response over WiFi (no PC needed)
    • battery information can be retrevied also in JSON format for easy parsing
  • Easy to modify code using Arduino IDE and flash new firmware over WiFi (no need to disconnect from the battery).

Parts needed:

  • Wemos D1 mini microcontroller.
  • SparkFun MAX3232 Transceiver.
  • Cable with RJ10 connector (some RJ10 cables have only two wires, make sure to buy one that has all four wires present).
  • Capacitors C1: 10uF, C2: 0.1uF (this is not strictly required, but recommended as Wemos D1 can have large current spikes).
