Launch of the JK-BMS RS485 add-on for Home Assistant

[jlm]

It is a great add-on.
Thank you
I've paid 7 euros for the templates; some observations:
1. You need to improve the installation documentation.
2. bar-card is obsolete; you can use this repository (fork):
https://github.com/spacerokk/bar-card/
3. I did not understand what to do with the info from "Up Time Template".
I do not know where to put that "time" code.

3. 12079963 seconds uptime? 139 days
How, my first BMS boot up was 2 months ago...
Full or lite templates all have problems
It is a great add-on.
Thank you

Sorry for the delay, I was on vacation.
So where does the documentation need to be improved.
I need feedback to improve it.
Regarding templates, they're useful for creating sensors in HA to calculate values
For example, in our case, the number of months-days-minutes that the BMS started for the 1st time.
So I think you'll like it.
I modified the code yesterday so that the module provides you with a ready-made sensor. It's called :

Code :

sensor.bms_1_total_runtime_formatted

So, can you update to v3.1.10
You can then simply replace the current sensor in your dashboard with the new one.
As simple as that

   
   

Concerning the 'Bar code' card, I recently replaced it with the

Lovelace Entity Progress Card

It blends in perfectly with the rest of the design
