EPEVER WiFi Box For Solar Controller - Fit EPEVR Solar Charge Controller MPPT - Communication Wireless Monitoring by Mobile Phone APP(eBox WiFi 01)

Easy to setup and use , have to manually connect on phone , to see solar data . But a good product

Good stuff, software need a bit of work but I am sure update available soon

I spent money on this rubbish. As many have already mentioned. It's on pair to pair connection and rubbish range. After trying to connect it to my router I bricked it and it won't reset either. Useless steps are requires to reset it and after several tries it just did not work.After some research, I bough "epever-wifi-2.4g-rj45-a".With the help of the support team, it is now available in the cloud and I can monitor from any where.

I would be great if this could be used at the same time as the MT50 control panel, I have not yet found a way for this to be possible and need to disconnect one or the other, which can get tiresome.

Works well

Only one criticism mounting holes are small but so is the unit

The specs say the wifi communication distance is "up to 165ft". Well, that is strictly true, but my actual real-world experience is about 25ft in direct line-of-sight, and 12-15ft when going through a single 9" thick brick wall. It looks like I am going to have to buy a wifi extender to get a usable range from it.Next, the device is not designed to connect to your existing wifi network. Rather it is a wifi access point, that you must connect to (subject to the range limitations I mentioned above) from your smartphone. The wifi network it creates is unsecured - anyone can connect to it, and both view data and, somewhat more worryingly, change the charge parameters of your device. There's no documented way to password-protect the wifi network.Fortunately, however, if you search around you may find a couple of websites or youtube videos from people who've hacked the device. It turns out that, if you connect to it, there is a web configuration interface accessible by connecting to 11.11.11.254. The username and p-word are both "admin". Using this undocumented interface you can create a WPA-PSK/AES password for the wifi network. However *beware*...This undocumented web interface contains a bunch of settings (including, apparently, the ability to set it up as a wifi station, so it can connect to your own wifi network as a client device). However, it is possible to brick the device if you unwittingly choose the wrong settings. I, in fact, did this with the first device I received, but Amazon fortunately refunded me, allowing me to buy a replacement.The device has a "factory reset" microswitch (recessed behind a small hole in the case, so you press it with a paper-clip or similar). Which would be great, apart from the fact that it actually does nothing at all. It turns out that the manufacturer has a set of instructions for doing a factory reset that involve prising the case apart, shorting out the connection between one of the pins of the microcontroller and a surface-mount capacitor while simultaneously pressing the "reset" microswitch. Well, I was not comfortable trying this on the brand-new bricked device, so I returned it for a refund and bought a replacement.So if you buy one of these, note that the wifi range is terrible, and the access point is open, that you should be very careful which, if any, settings you change using the undocumented web interface (I would personally recommend only adding a wifi password and not toying with anything else) because of the potential to brick the device if you change something. Also, the company's Android monitoring software has the IP address 11.11.11.254 hard coded into it, so even if you were to get this to connect to your own wifi network without bricking it, forget using the android client to talk to it.It'll probably be nice when it's finished!

Works a treat

Modulo Wifi ottimo per il prezzo. Non c'è nulla da configurare. Si inserisce nella porta del regolatore con il cavo in dotazione e l'access point è subito disponibile. L'indirizzo ip è fuori standard e quindi si deve cercare la rete WIFI con lo Smartphone e, installata l'App della casa, i dati sono subito disponibili. Dispositivo semplice che può essere collegato anche solo all'occorrenza per le verifiche e per la configurazione del regolatore, nel mio caso un Tracer 30A. Si perchè è anche possibile settare alcuni parametri da Smartphone es sinco dell'orario e data, scelta del tipo di batteria collegata e valori di gestione della ricarica ecc. L'ho trovato molto comodo.

Das Gerät ist ansich nicht schlecht, aber ein saublöder Fehler ist, dass man das Gerät ische Wifi integrieren kann, d.H. man muss mit dem Handy oder Tablet das heimnetz verlassen und sich an der Box anmelden, danach dann wieder zurück ans Heimnetz. Das ist wirklich schade! So macht das ganz und gar keinen Spaß.

Diciamo c(e se si è vicini al dispositivo si riescono a leggere i dati, c’è la possibilità di registrarlo con un altro router e poter leggere i dati anche fuori di casa come succede per le telecamere IP?

Bho in locale funziona ma da remoto ma non riesco a farlo andare ed era il motivo per cui l'ho comprato

Die WIFI Box funktioniert leider mehr als instabil.Grundlegend baut die Box ein eigenes WIFI Netz auf mit dem man sich via Handy verbinden kann um dann die Daten des Reglers auszulesen. Wer automatische Aktualisierung der Daten erwartet wird hier leider nicht glücklich damit - man muss immer händisch aktualisieren. Wie schon geschrieben wurde muss man sich die App von der Herstellerseite besorgen und findet sie nicht im AppStore.Man kann auch via WEB die Box in ein vorhandenes WIFI Netzwerk einbinden, allerdings läuft das hier genauso instabil wie Standalone.Ohne Update kann ich in jetzigem Zustand die Box nicht wirklich empfehlen. Das könnte viel besser gehen!
