Recovery Function for Fully Discharged Batteries- Most reverse polarity protected chargers will not recognize, and therefore not recharge a battery which has been discharged to zero or nearly zero Volts. This Blue Smart Charger h  owever will attempt to recharge a fully discharged battery with low current and resume normal charging once sufficient voltage has developed across the battery terminals. Also, if caught in time, sulfation can sometimes be partially reversed by charging the battery with low current up to a higher voltage which this battery charger is designed to do.

Seamless Wireless Control and Real-Time Updates

Experience the convenience of Bluetooth integration that brings smart wireless monitoring to your fingertips. Effortlessly control and modify charger settings, and keep your system updated with the VictronConnect app—transforming your mobile device into a sophisticated energy management console.

The battery is charged, smartly... to perfect condition- The seven-step charging algorithm gets the best out of your battery. The charger gives the battery the power it needs, maintains its health, ensures better performance... and a longer life.

Connect the battery with ease- The charger comes with both crocodile clips and M8 eyelets - making it easy to connect to the battery. If you wish, you can leave it permanently connected.

Check the status of your battery remotely- The Blue Smart IP65 is equipped with built-in Bluetooth, so the status of the charger and the battery can be checked on a smartphone, tablet or laptop. All settings of the charger can be configured with the VictronConnect app.

The VictronConnect app- Setup, readout and configure your Blue Smart IP65 Charger via your smartphone.

You can display the status of your charger and battery and even control the functions of your charger using the VictronConnect app. On your screen the readout of voltage and current is default available.

Storage Mode: less corrosion of the positive plates- Even the lower float charge voltage that follows the absorption period will cause grid corrosion. It is therefore essential to reduce the charge voltage even further when the battery remains connected to the charger during more than 48 hours.

Temperature Compensated Charging- The optimal charge voltage of a lead-acid battery varies inversely with temperature. The Blue Smart IP65 Charger measures ambient temperature during the test phase and compensates for temperature during the charge process. The temperature is measured again when the charger is in low current mode during float or storage. Special settings for a cold or hot environment are therefore not needed.

Li-ion Battery Mode- The Blue Smart Charger uses a specific charging algorithm for Li-ion (LiFePO₄) batteries, with automatic Li-ion under voltage protection reset.

> EASY TO USE - The MODE Button:

You can operate the Blue Smart charger range without the use of Bluetooth too! The MODE button provides access to all charging programs to ensure your battery is charged & maintained properly.

For Example: the charger can be switched to low current mode (see technical specifications) by pressing the MODE button for 3 seconds. The MODE LED will blink when in low current mode. The low current mode remains activated until the MODE button is pressed again during 3 seconds.

> TEMPERATURE PROTECTION 

The output current will reduce at high ambient temperature..

Recovery of deeply-discharged 'dead' batteries

Unlike other brands, the Blue Smart IP65 Charger will attempt to recharge a deeply-discharged battery by force-feeding it with a low current. Normal charging will then be resumed as soon as there is sufficient voltage across the battery terminals.

Connect the battery with ease

The charger comes with both crocodile clips and M8 eyelets - making it easy to connect to the battery. If you wish, you can leave it permanently connected.

MPPT charge controllers can be a powerful component of your solar system. They not only manage the charging of the battery bank from the solar panels, but they are also able to convert the higher voltage of the solar array to the lower voltage of the battery bank. This allows you to design highly efficient solar systems.** You take the total watts of the solar array divided by the voltage of the battery bank. That will give you the output current of the charge controller. For example, a 1000W solar array ÷ 24V battery bank = 41.6A. The rating of the charge controller should be at least 40A
