Leave your stored battery plugged in without wondering if it's slowly losing ground. This 12V charger uses a 7-stage charging algorithm and storage mode to adjust charge levels over time, so the battery stays maintained between trips.
A battery that sits for weeks can come back weak even when it's been on a basic charger the whole time. This unit uses an advanced 7-stage charging algorithm plus storage mode that adjusts charge levels for months instead of holding constant voltage. On a trailer, boat, or stored vehicle, it stays connected for long-term maintenance without treating storage like a nonstop full-charge cycle.
When a battery keeps coming back low, blinking LEDs don't tell you much about what the charger is actually doing. Bluetooth Smart connectivity gives you monitoring, configuration, and control through the VictronConnect app without needing to access the charger directly. You can check voltage, current, and charge stage on your phone or tablet instead of trying to decode light patterns at the charger.
Generic charging is where battery life starts getting cut short, especially after a lithium upgrade or long storage cycles. This charger runs across lithium and lead-acid chemistries with 8 pre-programmed charging profiles, support for custom profiles, and a dedicated lithium battery mode that works within tight voltage tolerances to prevent overcharge damage. You can set the charger around the battery you have instead of forcing everything through one basic program.
Some smart chargers won't even begin when a battery is heavily discharged, which leaves a recoverable battery looking dead before charging starts. Dead battery detection applies low current charging to revive fully discharged batteries from 0 volts, and reconditioning mode for lead-acid batteries works to reduce sulfation buildup. When a stored battery has dropped too far, the charger can start the recovery process instead of refusing the connection.
Storage lots, trailer parking spots, and garage shelves expose chargers to moisture, dust, and grime that lighter-duty housings don't handle well. SafetyShield+ protection adds IP65 water, dust, and chemical resistance, along with safeguards against overheating, short-circuit, and reverse polarity. That gives you a 15 amp charger that can stay in harsher storage conditions while continuing to charge and maintain the battery.

Hi everyone. Today we're taking a look at the Victron Blue Smart IP65 12-volt battery charger with Bluetooth. Folks, this is a professional charger. It's gonna feature an IP65 rated enclosure, meaning it's water, dust, and chemical resistance. So, it's gonna be great for use on boats, RVs, maybe in your workshop or wherever you're doing anything that you're doing with your batteries. This has a smart seven stage charging algorithm, and that's gonna adapt to your battery's condition.
So, whether it's bulk and absorption the flow and storage modes, this will help protect and prolong your battery life across multiple popular chemistries of your battery system. So like AGM, gel, flooded lead acid, lithium, et cetera. Now, one of the standout features to me is this does use a built-in Bluetooth technology so you can monitor charging status and configure settings right from your smartphone or tablet using their free Victron Connect app. There's no extra hardware required. It's a pretty impressive app.
There's lots of different things you can do in there. I highly recommend you check it out and use it. Now, this will give you also the option here with the, what I call alligator style clips, they're spring loaded, or if you want to do a a direct bolt on option with ring terminals, they give you that included wire as well. So, you can use whichever function you need, whichever one you need, rather, for your specific setup. And of course you have your standard NEMA 1-15 plug.
Well folks, that's gonna wrap up our quick look together at this Victron Blue Smart 12-volt battery charger. I'm Steven. As always, reach out to us if you have any further questions and have a good day.
High quality build; great features like Bluetooth.
