Dave, I’ve never used a Chargery BMS so I can’t comment on that. I’ve had good experiences with JBD, which are also available from AliExpress. You can purchase with Bluetooth, LCD display, or both. If you want both then you’ll have to look closely as most support one or the other as they use the same connection port. Only some have two ports on them. I believe they use RS422/485 comms so you could possibly splice both to the one port. In fact, that’s something I might try in the coming week.
Good point YMMV but,
I purchased my rework station on ebay about 4 years ago for about 40 bucks.. I ve found it well worth the money and it's paid for itself multiple times. I knew nothing of them until I saw a YouTube review on one.
