Its IP65 enclosure copes with damp or dusty environments where a standard charger would fail, and Bluetooth is built in for monitoring straight from a phone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnclosure\u003c\/strong\u003e, IP65 rated, protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBluetooth\u003c\/strong\u003e, built in, works with the free VictronConnect app on iOS and Android\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCharging algorithm\u003c\/strong\u003e, eight-stage adaptive process covering bulk, absorption, float, storage and reconditioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBattery compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e, 24V lead-acid (AGM, gel, flooded) and lithium (LiFePO4) with selectable profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutput\u003c\/strong\u003e, single DC output with integrated connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e, 1.1kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe charger analyses battery condition during the bulk phase and adjusts absorption time accordingly, reducing the risk of overcharging. Storage mode holds batteries at an optimal voltage during extended standby, which suits seasonal or backup use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVictronConnect gives real-time charge status, lets you adjust the charge algorithm, set current limits and review history, without a separate interface panel. The CEE 7\/17 plug is a two-pin Schuko-compatible plug used across Europe; a UK adapter is needed for BS 1363 sockets. The DC output uses Victron's integrated connector, supplied with the unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e24V battery banks in campervans, motorhomes and commercial vehicles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMarine use where moisture and spray resistance is needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOff-grid and backup power systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorkshop or yard charging of 24V traction or leisure batteries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeasonal maintenance for boats, plant equipment and standby systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the box\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVictron Blue Smart IP65 24\/8 charger with integrated CEE 7\/17 mains plug\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 directly to a 24V battery via the supplied DC connector, and select the correct charge profile in VictronConnect before use (lithium profile for LiFePO4).
