Is anyone communicating with 3rd party chargers?

If so, how and what's your use case?

Thanks

I've not used this but stumbled upon a topic mentioning the midnite charge controller.

GitHub - jbakuwel/venus-midnite: Using Midnite Classic charge controller as battery monitor and charger

Someone made a custom driver for it. Communicates via modbus i believe and then adds the data into venus system via dbus
