They sell Rover either without BT dongle, or with (for more money). It looks like RS232 port is there on the unit no matter what, and they are talking about using PC as well. Not sure I understood them correctly.
From the manual: "RS232 port to communicate with BT-1 Bluetooth module and PC". Don't see RS232-USB cable in Renogy Accessories. RS232-USB cables on Amazon have very different monstrous RS232 looking more like a VGA monitor connector.
yes, I bought the bluetooth dongle, for the 40ish bucks, maybe 50... it was well worth it. it showes lots of info and keeps a hystory of charges and such. plus I can edit the setting from my cell phone and not have to have a laptop and cable that I have to access the charger physicly.
