Select one or more USB cables and click connect: Plug the RS485 USB cable into the SolarAssistant monitoring device. Once you click "connect" on the configuration page, you should see each BMS show up as a battery pack as shown below. One pack will be shown for each JK BMS connected in step 2 above. How to connect a JK BMS to SolarAssistant.
When using the ports on the right, SolarAssistant will "listen in" on parallel communication going between the JK BMSs that are connected together. This is similar to how the official JK BMS software works. When using the port on the left, you need to configure the BMS to use the "000 - 4G-GPS" protocol using the official JK BMS software.
Pulling the data into Home Assistant through the UART port connected to an ESP32 chip running ESPHome. The ESP chip sends all the data from the bms over Wifi. I have a new JK BMS coming in the mail - planning to set that up the same way this weekend with ESPHome. This one however I can connect via bluetooth instead of having to hard wire it.
When using the port on the left, you need to configure the BMS to use the "000 - 4G-GPS" protocol using the official JK BMS software. This is the protocol also used by the original JK BMS. On the SolarAssistant configuration page, select the "JK BMS" protocol as shown below. Select one or more USB cables and click connect:
Let SolarAssistant perform it's own state of charge (SoC) calculation by counting power flowing in and out of the battery. This is a good fallback option for anyone who can't get a real BMS reading. It's less accurate than a Victron BMS but much more accurate than the standard voltage based readings of an inverter.
This ESP32 is monitoring the JK-BMS as is in the picture. (I'll mount it later) through bluetooth. Love ESP technology! Would you be able to say how you got the ESP32 working with your JMS into Home Assistant? I'd love to sort that out - have the parts here!

In order to evaluate the financial feasibility of integrating energy storage systems with solar PV system in detached houses, economic indicators able to compare the costs of the different storage scenarios with one another are needed.
While the costs of all energy storage systems remain too high to be considered financially attractive without further support mechanisms, LIB storage is clearly the best storage alternative in all scenarios with a LCC 1000–7500 € higher and a LCOE 0.005–0.04 €/kWh higher than the costs of a 13.5 kW stand-alone solar PV system.
Hence, the optimal capacity of all the energy storage systems is zero, whereas the feasible solar PV size is limited to below 20 % when using the 2019 electricity prices as comparison.
For the battery storage system, a 90 % round-trip efficiency was used, representing the use of a generic LIB , . For the H 2 energy storage system, a 30 % round-trip efficiency was used, a value that could also be lower for small-scale energy storage applications.
Solar PV systems without selling surplus electricity to the grid were profitable up to a renewable fraction of 10 % with 2019 market prices and up to 35 % with the 2021 unusually high market prices.
While LIB storage clearly remains the most feasible energy storage technology with a LCOS of 3–5 times higher than the LCOE of grid electricity, the LCOS of the discharged energy from the H 2 storage and TES system is between 5 and 20 times higher than that of grid electricity.
