BT Controller App

Hello All,

I am setting up a new Newpowa Frigate 40amp MPPT controller that comes with Bluetooth. The problem is the Android app the instructions tell you to use is not that great. They say to use is SolarLifeBT from Solarlife. I can connect but the historic metrics are not showing correctly and a few other pains. Does anyone know of any other Android app that I could use?

Kurt

Hi Kurt
I'm interested in this thread as I am on the same "boat" () as you. I have just installed my Victron MPPT (with Bluetooth) and now I'm trying to work out how to control it.


Maybe we should look at these links?

Re: BT Controller App

the victron app is very good for the victron. and should be easy to use without any instructions.

for the OP. you are most likly going to have to use the app for that unit. next time buy a victron...
