Renogy Core Lithium

Renogy Core Lithium batteries have Bluetooth built into the battery. Sensa reads the battery's own management system so you can see its charge and cells from the dashboard.

How it connects​

Bluetooth. Sensa reads the battery through a Bluetooth proxy or the Sensa unit's own Bluetooth. A proxy near the battery is recommended.

Add to Sensa Nomad​

Sensa recognises the battery from its Bluetooth name. Open Settings, choose the Devices tab, tick it under Discovered and press Add Selected Devices. If it is not there yet, press Scan.

See Adding devices for more.

What you see​

The battery appears on the BMS tab of the Habitation dashboard, with:

  • State of charge
  • Voltage, current and power
  • Remaining capacity and cycle count
  • Each cell's voltage
  • The battery's temperature readings
  • Whether charging and discharging are allowed

Good to know​

  • No health or balancing figures. The battery does not report state of health or balancing, so those readings do not appear.
  • Not yet tested on a real battery. Support is built, but we have not yet had a Core battery on the bench.
  • Only the built-in Bluetooth. Older Renogy batteries that use a separate Bluetooth dongle are not supported.
