victron-bluetooth

Reads device data via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) product advertisements. Currently only supports battery monitors. Intended to be used as a library or as binaries.

Disclaimer: This software is not an officially supported interface by Victron and is provided entirely "as-is".

Requirements (rough)

1. use bluetoothctl to pair ahead of time
2. enable the GATT protocol in the victron app
3. jump through a lot of hoops to get the decryption key, see https://github.com/keshavdv/victron-ble
