It has 2.2k installs sharing analytics and works locally. Victron BLE is a built-in integration that reads Victron devices over Bluetooth and exposes their data as sensors. It works locally, so readings come straight from the device without a cloud service. The sensors cover values such as AC power, AC current and voltage, battery voltage, battery current, battery temperature, charge state, balancer status and alarms. Home Assistant can discover supported devices on its own and offer to add them. Setup is done in the UI and asks for the device's instant readout encryption key, which is found in the VictronConnect app, while the Bluetooth address is picked up automatically.
