BMS BLE tool

github crate docs MIT CI

This is a tool for interacting with some customer-grade Battery Management Systems (BMS).

Inplemented features

  • Discovering compatible BLE devices
  • Identifying devices by address or name
  • Querying device info
  • Fetching cells data
  • Command-line interface
  • Prometheus exporter
  • Prometheus push gateway client

Supported models and firmware versions

Vendor Model HW Version SW Version
JiKong BMS BD4A8S4P 15A 15.26

I'm happy to add support for other models in the future. Please open PR or create issue.

Crate usage examples

Get device info and cells data by device name:

use btleplug::{api::Manager as _, platform::Manager};
use ubmsc::Client;

#[tokio::main(flavor = "current_thread")]
pub async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let manager = Manager::new().await?;

    let adapter = manager
        .adapters()
        .await?
        .into_iter()
        .next()
        .ok_or("No adapters found")?;

    let client = Client::new(&adapter, &"UPS_BMS".into(), &Default::default());

    let info = client.device_info().await?;
    println!("{info:?}");

    let data = client.cell_data().await?;
    println!("{data:?}");

    client.close().await?;

    Ok(())
}

Find available BMS devices and print device info:

use btleplug::{api::Manager as _, platform::Manager};
use ubmsc::Client;

#[tokio::main(flavor = "current_thread")]
pub async fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
    let manager = Manager::new().await?;

    let adapter = manager
        .adapters()
        .await?
        .into_iter()
        .next()
        .ok_or("No adapters found")?;

    for device in Client::find(&adapter, &Default::default()).await? {
        let client = Client::new(&adapter, &"UPS_BMS".into(), &Default::default());

        let name = client.device_name().await?;
        let info = client.device_info().await?;
        println!("{name}");
        println!("{info:?}");

        client.close().await?;
    }

    Ok(())
}

Run prometheus exporter for specified devices (with logging to journald):

$ ubmsc -e -u http://127.0.0.1:9898/metrics -l ubmsc=debug -j -d UPS_BMS -d SOLAR_BMS

Run prometheus pushgateway client continuously to export to VictoriaMetrics:

$ ubmsc -e -p -u http://127.0.0.1:8428/api/v1/import/prometheus -l ubmsc=info -j -d UPS_BMS -d SOLAR_BMS

Alternative solutions

  • MPP-Solar Python module and command-line tools to work with BMS. Has support several models of different vendors. Doesn't work with JK-BMS with latest firmwares (>11.x).
  • esphome-jk-bms Component for ESPHome to interact with JK-BMS. Not tested.
