Smart 7-Step Charging Program

The seven-step charging algorithm optimizes your battery’s performance, health, and longevity. With preset algorithms for common Lead Acid and Lithium Batteries, the charger ensures efficient and reliable charging. For specific battery requirements, Expert Mode allows adjustments to all parameters and time limits.

Deep Discharge Recovery

Unlike other chargers, the Blue Smart IP65 Charger can recharge deeply discharged batteries by force-feeding them with a low current until normal charging resumes when sufficient voltage is detected.

Easy Battery Connection

The charger includes Alligator clips and M8 eyelets, making battery connection simple. It can even be left permanently connected if desired.

Remote Monitoring

With built-in Bluetooth, you can monitor the charger and battery status using a smartphone, tablet, or laptop. Configure all settings using the VictronConnect app.

VictronConnect App

The VictronConnect app allows programming, live status updates, and access to historical information for Victron products with Bluetooth support or a VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle.

History File

Access historical data for the last 40 charge cycles, including:

• Start and end voltages
• Time spent in each charge cycle
• Amp-hours charged
• Completion status
• Charge profile used

The MODE Button

The MODE button enables operation without Bluetooth. It provides access to all charging programs and ensures proper battery charging and maintenance. For example:

• Switch to low current mode by pressing the MODE button for 3 seconds.
• The MODE LED blinks to indicate activation of low current mode.
