Review on πŸ”Œ Enhanced Bluetooth VE.Direct Smart Dongle by Victron Energy by Aaron Wood

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Solves problem with Smart Shunt

So I got this because the Bluetooth range of the Victor Smart Shunt is very short (literally less than 5 feet with no obstruction). This connects and allows you to connect at a distance I would say 50-60 feet with no obstruction. I can easily connect even in the RV, so I can finally keep an eye on battery levels and solar panel performance. I shouldn't have bought this, but it solves the range problem. The only issue I encountered was that the connection would fail a couple of times and the module would seem to be stuck thinking it was connected to my phone so it wouldn't allow the connection. I had to disconnect it from the smart shunt to reset it and then everything was fine.

Pros
  • Brilliantly done
Cons
  • Communication with seller
