Smart 7-step charging program: The seven-step charging algorithm gets the best out of your battery. The charger gives the battery the power it needs, maintains its health, and ensures better performance and a longer life.

These chargers come standard with preset algorithms which are optimally set for all common Lead Acid and Lithium Batteries. For Battery manufacturer-specific settings, Expert mode allows changing practically all parameters and time limits used by the charge algorithm.

Deep Discharge Recovery: 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.

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

Remote Monitoring: 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. 

Victron Connect: VictronConnect lets you program, as well as get live status and historical information on Victron products with built-in Bluetooth support or by using a VE. Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle.

History File:
View historical data for the last 40 charge cycles. Information supplied includes Start and End voltages, time spent in each charge cycle, amp-hours charged, Completion status of each charge and charge profile used.

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 for 3 seconds.
