Boardstrom: Solar Monitor

About

Boardstrom turns your iPhone or iPad into a live dashboard for your Victron Energy system. Open the app and instantly see state of charge, solar input, battery power, and loads, read directly from your Victron devices over Bluetooth or from your Cerbo GX / Venus OS over WiFi. No VRM, no account, no cloud. Just the numbers that matter, the moment you check your van, boat, or cabin. TWO WAYS TO CONNECT • Bluetooth: reads the Instant Readout broadcasts of SmartShunt and BMV monitors, SmartSolar MPPT chargers, Orion XS and Orion-Tr Smart DC-DC chargers, Phoenix inverters, MultiPlus / Quattro inverter-chargers, and SmartLithium batteries. • Cerbo GX / Venus OS: connects to the GX on your local network and shows the whole system, including per-charger solar, GX temperature and tank sensors, and your shunt's lifetime history. MORE THAN VICTRON Ruuvi temperature sensors, Mopeka tank sensors, Jetfoiler batteries, and the open-source Boardstrom radar tank sensor appear right on the dashboard next to your Victron data.

There are no servers and no account to create.
