Polycab PSIS-3K-SM1: recovering Bluetooth telemetry for MQTT
Polycab Solar Inverter to MQTT reads Bluetooth telemetry from a PSIS-3K-SM1 inverter using values the author says were recovered from its Android monitoring app. A Python service publishes solar power, voltage, current, temperature and energy readings to a Mosquitto MQTT broker.
