The VictronConnect app gives real-time voltage and current readings and lets you pick the correct charge profile for the battery chemistry fitted, working over a typical Bluetooth range without needing a direct line of sight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe charging process runs through bulk, absorption, float and storage phases. For LiFePO4 batteries the algorithm adjusts to suit the tighter voltage tolerances lithium chemistry needs. At 5A output, it suits batteries from roughly 14Ah to 100Ah: motorcycles, leisure batteries, small marine setups and auxiliary vehicle batteries.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eMotorcycle, scooter and ATV battery maintenance; leisure battery charging in caravans, campervans and motorhomes; small marine auxiliary batteries in exposed compartments; seasonal vehicle storage over winter lay-up; and general workshop or garage use where a compact, portable charger is needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the box\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVictron Blue Smart IP65 12V 5A charger (1 unit)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCEE 7\/16 (Europlug) mains cable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDC output connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRetail packaging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eConnect via the supplied CEE 7\/16 plug to a standard 230V AC mains circuit rated for continuous use.
