making mistakes so you don't have to...
One way to have Wifi to monitor the cells is the DIYBMS
I have them.
easy to build / program and relative cheap.
($3 per cell module, $10 for controller (include Wemos D1), optional 4 channel relay $2)
Funny to see the active balancer BMS!
I got one of the first.... It worked for 3 days.
Seller got many (all) defective returned.
As the are still for sale, new batch must be better.
One negative thing is that the BT antenna is covered by the metal casing.
if you open it, your range increase a lot.
the case is normally not needed for cooling (as you can feel, it does not get hot)
seller gave me this tip to improve BT range.
