I just got the TONWON Vgate vLInker-BM+-BT4.0 from amazon germany and it worked :)
So happy.
Finally I can see the battery temperature and the other things pk87 mentioned above.
First things I understood is that at full power it gave a maximum of around 86kW, battery tempreture about 15 degrees celcius and that at maximum regen (full green meter) could do only 20kW which is poor, compared to the hyundai that can go up to 80kW regen but the Honda E is rear wheel drive so cannot brake so much at the rear compared to front wheel drives.

Did you use PCC (Power Cruise Control) with the OBD2 dongle or a different app for the readout of the data?

I used PCC. I tried other apps like torque pro and car scanner but still did not manage to connect to the ECU. I don't understand why. How can only PCC connect to the ECU? Or even PCC does not connect to the ECU but use some other ways? I am confused.

What data does this show?
I ask because the Apple version is a paid for app?

The app shows me that at 50.0% SOC I have 15.22kWh
If anyone is using the app can you share yours please?

I also realised that while driving the battery temperature does not go up as I thought but it goes down as it uses the air to cool the battery. The temperature goes up only while charging and for some minutes after you stop keeps increasing but once you drive it starts going down.

Charging at 2.3kW rate for some hours, temperature increases by around just 4 degrees celcius.

Power check control should be to check the health of the battery pack. I will try it.
