The UART-TTL (labeled as RS485
) socket of the BMS can be attached to any UART pins of the ESP. A hardware UART should be preferred because of the high baudrate (115200 baud). The connector is called 4 Pin JST with 1.25mm pitch.
You can install this component with ESPHome external components feature like this:

- The battery type sensor is pretty useless because the BMS reports always the same value (
Ternary Lithium
). Regardless of which battery type was set / parameter set was loaded via the android app. (#9) - ESP32: Adding all supported sensors can lead to a stack overflow / boot loop. This can be solved by increasing the stack size. (#63)
A user of this project (@dr3amr) shared some Home Assistant Lovelace UI cards for a beautiful dashboard here.
