I am wondeing if this worked, but also why would the PIP proctocole not work if it was a SmartESS compatible device?
I am trying to setup communication with a solar inverter (MPPT - axpert max 8000). Issue is I have no way to do any experimentation, as the inverter is not accesible to me (and when it is accesible i would be unable to buy any additional components). I found 2 possible solutions for this, either use your way with esphome, or use a docker based solution (by ned-kelly) but which would you recommend? (Sorry if this question seems obnoxious, but I really am lost)
