Where do I start...?!
In this video, I show you how difficult, cumbersome and awkward the connection of my two Seplos batteries are. When I tried to connect them to each other and the computer, I hit several roadblocks. Setting up the CAN Hat with the Raspberry Pi is a totally different story. In fact, I really cannot get it working at all and consider now a Victron Cerbo GX as an alternative to show you the alternative setup. Yes, the Cerbo is more expensive than a Raspberry Pi (good luck getting a Pi), but it is the real plug'n play solution.
So, if you have the CAN communication working on a Raspberry Pi, please leave your comments down below. I'm more than happy to learn from you and make a how-to video about your solution.

Charge Algorithm for the Seplos System:
1: Charging current limiting algorithm
1.1. A device triggers a charging alarm of voltage, temperature, current and capacity or any charging protection, and is judged as no charging current;
1.2. When zero devices can be charged, the charging current is fixed at 10.0A;;
1.3. When a single device can be charged, the charging current shall be ["Charging Overcurrent Alarm Value"-10.0A]; If the charging overcurrent alarm value is greater than 20.0A, it will be reduced by 10.0A, and it will be fixed by 10.0A when it is less than 20.0A;
1.4. When more than two sets can be charged, the charging current shall be ["Charging Overcurrent Alarm Value" * number of sets/2];
1.5. When the voltage of any single cell in all parallel battery packs exceeds "set value of monomer overvoltage protection" +30mV, clear the charging current and set the charging capacity to 0A;
2: Discharge current limiting algorithm
2.1. A device triggers the voltage, temperature, current, capacity discharge alarm or any discharge protection, and is judged as no discharge current;
2.2. When zero devices can discharge, the discharge current is fixed at 0.0A;;
2.3. When a single device can discharge, the discharge current shall be ["Discharge Overcurrent Alarm Value"-10.0A]; If the over-current alarm value is greater than 20.0A, it will be reduced by 10.0A; if it is less than 20.0 A, it will be fixed at 10.0A
2.4; if more than two units can discharge, the discharge current will be as per "Discharge over-current alarm value" * number of units/2;
