Useful when the controller ends up somewhere you cannot easily read a screen — under a bed platform, behind a panel, in a locker.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCheck compatibility first\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRich Solar states this module works with the 20A, 30A, 40A and 60A MPPT controllers only. It is not a universal accessory.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt does not add Bluetooth to the BRAVO PRO flush-mount controllers, the BRAVO AIR 30 or the BRAVO 50 DC — those already have Bluetooth built in and need nothing extra.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf you are unsure which controller you have, check for a communication port on the case before ordering.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhy this module\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBluetooth 4.0 with BLE, so it stays connected without draining the battery: 0.04 W on standby and 0.05 W in use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePowered entirely from the controller through the RJ12 port. No separate supply, no batteries.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated IP67, which is a far higher sealing standard than the controllers themselves. The module can sit somewhere damp even if the controller cannot.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied with a 5 metre lead, so the module can be mounted away from the controller to get a clear signal path.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRange is quoted at 15 m, roughly 50 ft. That is line of sight; a steel wall or a battery bank between you and the module will cut it down.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlug the RJ12 lead into the controller's communication port and mount the module where the signal is not blocked by metal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMounting holes are 3.2 mm on a 57.5 mm centre.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe module is 2.6 x 2.01 x 0.61 inches and weighs 4.2 oz.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSerial baud rate is fixed at 9600 bps and is not adjustable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWarranty\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRich Solar's warranty schedule covers accessories under its general term of one year from the original purchase date.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis term is not prorated.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal purchaser only, and not transferable.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RICHSOLAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46392691261590,"sku":"RS-BT1","price":28.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0676\/5291\/1254\/files\/RichSolarMPPTBluetoothModuleBT-17.jpg?v=1785842442","url":"https:\/\/sunenergydepot.com\/products\/bt-1-module-bluetooth-module-for-solar-charge-controllers","provider":"sunenergydepot.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
