Can not connect to apps. Tried old and new. What steps should be taken.

Brian Trautman,

I’ve used several Bluetooth batteries and their respective apps, all see to be quirky in their own way. Your instructions seem to skip the user information. Mostly how to connect to the battery. I can’t make it charge. I’ve tried to toggle the charge and discharge tabs and the battery just sits there at 25%.

Rob Straughan,

BMS app for 2x 314ah displays the devices bit gives device connection time out. So no connection. How to solve?

Herbert,

Just received 2x 314amp however wattcycle app is very basic. Do I need to install the BMS version?

Herbert,

Need clarification – I read that Wattcycle App doesn’t provide cell-level data on an iPhone for 280 AH mini. Is that true or has the app been updated?

Alan Shedd,

Please update manual for new app. What does standby mean? Are there notifications as the other user asked? Do I need to update the settings for my battery?

Karen Elizabeth Lally,

The instructions provided on the site do not match the app and it would be nice to have instructions that would actually show you what each selection means.

So basically, there is no effective app available as promoted.

Lorenzo,

All of the questions are relevant to all users. Can answers be put in an FAQ please to be respectful to users.

Nick,

I like the app, but the instruction manual in the app doesn’t match the software. The manual refers to “BMS Meta” – it looks like it has features not present in Wattcycle.
I like the idea of an app, but it’s hard to get the most out of it when I don’t know how it’s supposed to work.

Gregg Garthright,

For a quality product like this, a little improvement in the app is necessary.
1. I can’t understand why it’s not possible to indicate the time remaining until the discharge limit specified by the user, not the BMS’s.
2. And if I had to ask, an notification when the user-set limit is reached. It would be almost perfect.
Thanks a lot

vic,

What does the charge and discharge button do on the app for the 314 amp hour smart 12 volt battery?
When spending five or $600 on batteries it would be nice to have better documentation and explain what each of the buttons do and why doesn’t all of the data work on the app like amount of cycles.

Mike,

Where can I find the error code explainations?

Joe,

Like others, I bought a newer 100ah Smart Mini. Received it today, and finding out that these newer ones won’t work with the older Bluetooth BMS Meta app. Downloaded the newer version and it does work on my iPhone 5S, but unfortunately, the view of the monitoring information on the screen is all jumbled together. This was NOT the case with the older BMS Meta version. I was able to download the new app onto my iMac, and it works fine on that and the viewing is OK. But like others, I am not a fan of this newer version. I’ll just put this one into my 4-pack of parallel batteries (1 of which is a Smart version) for an emergency inverter and use one of my older ones for traveling in my car to plug my electric 12-volt cooler into it.

Steve Johnson,

What is the password or where can I get the password

David ,

I like the feature of the older “BMS Meta” where it displays the voltage of each individual cell. Is there a way to get the new “Wattcycle” bluetooth app to display each individual cell’s voltage??? Right now, it can only display the total system voltage.

TomL,

Bought 2 12 volt 100 amp batteries. Can’t connect with Bluetooth. Both apps not working. Please advise. Thanks.
