The Renogy DCC50S is a very good DC-DC / MPPT charger. (now 30A or 50A)
This is the BT-2 Bluetooth adapter that works with an APP on your smart device. (phone in my case)
this is what you get . . .
..
right ok . . . so lets connect it . . .
.
Nice cable managed covers on the DC50 . . . the BT-2 plugs in the RS485 port.
here . . . .
..
size wise its ver small, about the size of a box of matches . .
The green light comes on when its connected,
the blue light shows comms when its talking to the phone and the APP.
.
this is the booklet
simple enough right . . . . =]
over to the APP . . .
There seems to be two APPs for it. (Renogy BT & Renogy DC Home)
The first is the better one imho . . Renogy BT its called.
install the APP then click + to add a device,
this popped up straight away . . . just click then one you think it is and confirm.
once conected you have 4 screens to choose.
MONITORING is the main page . . . .
it shows:
solar mppt section.
**
AUX battery status
**
Output status.
.
RECORD page . . .
which shows some basic data logging . . . looks like you can got back in the history at the top. but i could only go back a week or so.
.
SETTINGS page . . .
not much to be done here.
..
DEVICE INFO:
just basic info SNo, FW etc.
...
so far so good.
starting up the van we have this . . .
Green:
solar, i have no panels connected, so no power here.
RED:
showiung 10A charging the AUX AGM battery @ 14.6v,
the 25C temp is a fail safe substitued value (as i have no temp sensor fitted)
BLUE:
showing output stage.
again 10A and 14.7V charging the AUX battery (so the SUM of the MPPT & DC-DC sides)
.
these values were verified with the BMV712 victron shunt . . .
the 10A had dropped to 7A, but similar values.
next up was the second APP - Renogy DC Home
this one requires to sign up:
