An ESPHome external component that monitors and controls Jikong (JK) Battery Management Systems over UART-TTL or Bluetooth LE. It exposes BMS telemetry such as cell voltages, temperature, and state of charge to ESPHome and Home Assistant.

Use cases

  • monitor JK-BMS battery cells from Home Assistant
  • read BMS telemetry over BLE with ESP32
  • control JK battery management system settings remotely
  • log lithium battery cell voltages and temperatures
  • integrate DIY solar battery BMS into home automation
  • monitor JK-BMS via UART-TTL serial connection

When to choose

  • you run ESPHome/Home Assistant and own a JK-BMS with software version 6.0 or newer
  • you want local, wireless-free (UART) or BLE monitoring without vendor cloud apps
  • you need cell-level telemetry and BMS control in your automation setup

When to avoid

  • your BMS is not a Jikong/JK model or runs software older than 6.0
  • you don't use ESPHome and prefer a standalone MQTT bridge or vendor app
  • you need a different balancer brand like Heltec or Neey (separate components exist)
