Victron Energy VE.Direct Smart Dongle (Bluetooth) - Wireless Monitoring for BMV & MPPT - Compatible with iOS & Android via VictronConnect App

This bluetooth dongle is required in order to set up some of Victron Energy's lower priced devices, including the BlueSolar MPPT Solar Charge Controller. The dongle is plugged in, then using the Victron app on, for instance, an iPhone, a bluetooth connection is made to the device and current state information is then displayed and configuration parameters can be accessed. Without the dongle, only a few configuration options are available; it is a necessity if the default settings are not what is needed. The dongle can be removed after configuration is complete, and connected to another device as necessary. This has the benefit of securing the settings as made and preventing inadvertent or malicious changes made by others. The price of the dongle is reasonable, and the total cost of it and the controller combined is competitive. I'm happy with Victron products, including this one.

This works great with my BlueSolar non-Bluetooth Victron hardware. I moved it from unit to unit connecting quickly to adjust setting and monitor performance then left it plugged into my MPPT to monitor panel output.

What a great gadget! It lets me see everything about my LiFePO4 battery that I need to keep it healthy.

Splendid. That feeling when you plug a piece of equipment in, the app instantly picks it up, the instructions make perfect sense, it all works as stated, and in 10 seconds you have a fully working device that you can count on. My charge controller (Victron) was not a bluetooth equipped one, so I needed this. That's my fault for not reading carefully. But plug this in and poof, you're set. The Victron Connect app picks it up instantly and you get full functionality in seconds. Bravo Victron.

I maintain two 48 volt battery banks for emergency home backup power, each with its own Victron 100/20 Bluesolar controller, which are cost efficient but do not have bluetooth capability. Those controllers are being jointly supplied in parallel by a single solar panel bank. This VE.Direct Dongle allows me to make controller adjustments via Victron's bluetooth app. I only need one dongle to service either controller by moving it back-and-forth between them as needed. When not making adjustments, this dongle stays connected to my primary battery bank to monitor condition via bluetooth. Since my controllers and battery banks are paralleled, I know the secondary bank will be receiving the same power from my solar panels as my primary bank. It's working very well for me.

Works as advertised. Am able to see how my panel and battery are doing from the house. I just wish I had realized when I purchased the charge controller off I had spent a little more I could have had this feature built in. Would have been less expensive in the end.

Why only 4 stars you ask? I’m annoyed that I even need this in the first place. It works great, decent range, and connects easily and quickly. I wish it output more information from my 12/500 phoenix, but overall I’m happy and annoyed.

Does exactly what it says. I made the mistake of being cheap and getting the Victron controller that didn't have a built-in bluetooth transceiver. Though the price on this is a bit steep, IMO, it does what it says and I'm glad I could add it. But if you haven't bought your controller yet, just get the one with built-in bluetooth. It's a better controller and about the same price as getting the cheapo and this dongle. I do like my Victron controller, though. Just mad at myself, haha.

Works great connected to my Victron Phoenix inverter

C'est vrai que lorsque qu'on commence dans le domaine de l'énergie solaire, on se sent un peu seul... Après avoir acheté trois chargeurs/régulateurs bas de gamme (tous innefficaces, donc renvoyés), j'ai découvert la marque VICTRON. C'est du sérieux, ENFIN, je désespérais. Donc après avoir installé un chargeur/régulateur Victron qui fonctionne du feu de Dieu, j'ai beaucoup apprécié ce module bluetooth. Inconvénients : - Je ne comprends pas pourquoi ce module n'est pas intégré dans le chargeur, - Portée bluetooth limitée à quelques mètres, mais bon... Avantages - Ben tout le reste Courant de charge en life, puissance panneaux restituée, tension batterie et panneaux, historique sur plusieurs jours, etc., etc. Je recommande malgré le prix élevé.

Questo accessorio Victron permette la trasformazione Smart del monitor BMV 700, consentendo la gestione e lettura del medesimo direttamente dallo Smartphone.
