Pylon protocol support


  • Do any Wattcycle batteries support pylon protocol? Is there any aftermarket solution that would support this?



  • The 48v 100ah "new" rack mount battery has that option on it's LCD screen - though is isn't able to communicated with anything on any protocol ever.  The battery was cheap enough that I'm not kicking myself but, we've given up on any kind of comms and run it open loop with a victron smart shunt.

    WC has to know there's a problem.  If they advertised it's capabilities accurately, or advertised comm's as future upgrade (like Tesla's full-self-driving LOL"), they'd have saved me a lot of time and aggravation. 

    I guess their moving enough batteries to new purchasers that customer retention isn't a priority.


  • My WC gen2 server rack battery communicate with an Eco-Worthy Libre 6pk inverter via CAN PY/MEG/Dey setting in that I see the battery state of charge and voltage on the inverter.  And I assume PY is PYLON.
