It can be left permanently connected, as storage mode reduces voltage once the battery is full and maintains an optimal standby level.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBluetooth is built directly into the unit. Through VictronConnect, an installer or end user can view charge status, adjust the algorithm, set battery capacity, and review historical data, removing the need for a separate display on single-battery installations. A battery safe mode is included for deeply discharged batteries that a standard charger would reject.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 12\/13 model delivers 13A into a 12V battery, appropriate for battery banks up to approximately 200Ah. For larger banks, Victron's higher-current IP67 models in the same range should be considered.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eUsed on marine and narrowboat batteries exposed to bilge moisture or spray, motorhome and vehicle leisure batteries during storage, plant and agricultural 12V starter or auxiliary batteries, off-grid cabins and outbuildings, and workshop or yard environments needing a permanent weatherproof charging point.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the box\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVictron Blue Smart IP67 Charger 12\/13 (1 output)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUK BS 1363 mains plug (pre-fitted)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eConnects directly to a standard UK 230V mains socket via the supplied BS 1363 plug. Check output leads are correctly connected to the battery terminals, observing polarity. The IP67 enclosure resists moisture and spray but should not be submerged continuously or fitted in permanently flooded locations. For lithium batteries, confirm the correct charge profile is selected in VictronConnect before use. No specialist certification is required for a plug-in installation, though any fixed wiring should be carried out by a qualified electrician.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52095605211424,"sku":"BPC121347026","price":85.71,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1010\/8148\/1504\/files\/ledandsolar-bpc121347026-1.webp?v=1785755324","url":"https:\/\/www.ledandsolar.co.uk\/products\/blue-smart-ip67-charger-12-13a","provider":"LED \u0026 Solar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
