Fix Prime 250w charger. by flip-dots · Pull Request #57 · flip-dots/SolixBLE

flip-dots · 2026-08-03T12:53:40Z

Issues were found in #51 to do with the Prime 250w charger needing a keep-alive command to be sent every 10~ seconds in order to receive telemetry. I have now obtained this device and have tested it myself and have been able to confirm that it does need this command to be sent, however the other changes to negotiation were not needed for this specific device.

This PR fixes support for this device by adding a new _keep_alive() function to the base SolixBLEDevice class which is called periodically when connected and negotiated, with this automatically stopping when disconnected.

This is currently experimental and I might end up changing things before merging (I am not sure about the interface or if it should be merged with _post_connect), but I am mostly happy with this as a solution.

Hi @flip-dots

With MQTT, the A2345 has not only the realtime trigger that runs only about 8-10 seconds with a subset of telemetry, there is also a status request command that triggers only a single but full telemetry message, containing also the live power values (more than the realtime trigger message).

If you want to automate telemetry for A2345, I suggest to investigate and use the status request rather than the realtime data, since it gives you control about the message frequency and you receive also the device settings, which are not included in the real time messages.

Example of status request 0200:

@thomluther good to know, I might end up implementing that in future but at the moment its not easily possible due to the issues of decoding telemetry above a certain size that are split across payloads as the newer prime style devices are a bit wacky in that department (they only sometimes encode information about if a packet is fragmented rather than always with the Solix style), but after that’s sorted out it should be possible.

I am seeing the same thing during the negotiation phase, my guess is its the pesky fragmentation causing issues again, but since that part of the negotiation is not needed to receive telemetry it can be safely ignored for now and with any luck will go away when fragmentation is fully figured out.

I have also been able to add support for controlling the USB outputs and setting timers. The only issues that remain are the incorrect clock/time zone, which will need to be fixed in another PR, the issues with occasionally un-parseable packets, which will also need to be fixed in another PR, and a weird issue where the USB C ports report 0.02A of current with nothing plugged in, which I think is fine for now.
