## Telemetry setup

# This ESPHome config broadcasts car telemetry (SoC, battery power, speed, charging status, odometer, etc.) 
# as [BTHome](https://bthome.io/) BLE advertisements — no WiFi/App required, just passive BLE beacons.

# On the receiving end, the [BTHome Monitor](https://apps.apple.com/app/bthome-monitor) iOS app
# listens for these advertisements and uses its webhook support to forward the decoded sensor
# data to [ABRP](https://abrp.com/) (A Better Route Planner), acting as a simple BLE-to-HTTP bridge
# so ABRP gets live vehicle data without any direct integration on the ESPHome side

# Be warned: This is just a first try and still very much work in progress - no guarantees given whatsoever!
#
# To install the ESPHome firmware on the WiCAN for the first time (before being able to use ESPHome OTA), I built the firmware
# for download (in "modern" format) and then used the following command line on Linux:
# esptool.py --before=default_reset --after=hard_reset --no-stub write_flash --flash_mode dio --flash_freq 80m --flash_size 4MB 0x0 /home/.../Downloads/m-wican-factory.bin
#
# Don't forget to short the pins to enable boot mode (https://github.com/meatpiHQ/wican-fw#obd).
#
# Using the graphical tool (https://github.com/meatpiHQ/wican-fw#2-usb-flash) will probably work just as well. Just populate
# the first item in the list with 0x0 and /home/.../Downloads/m-wican-factory.bin and leave the rest empty.
