Its IP67 enclosure is dust-tight and protected against temporary immersion, so it copes with wet, dusty or exposed conditions that would put a standard charger out of action. It suits professional installers, marine fit-outs, vehicle workshops and off-grid setups needing unattended charging.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey features of the Victron Blue Smart charger\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIP67 enclosure\u003c\/strong\u003e, dust-tight and protected against temporary immersion up to 1 metre.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCharge current\u003c\/strong\u003e, 17A output for 12V battery banks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBluetooth built in\u003c\/strong\u003e, monitor and configure via the VictronConnect app on iOS and Android.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdaptive charging\u003c\/strong\u003e, multi-stage algorithm covering bulk, absorption and float phases.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBattery compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e, works with AGM, gel, flooded lead-acid and LiFePO4 chemistries.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMains connection\u003c\/strong\u003e, single output with a CEE 7\/7 Schuko plug for 230V sockets.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStorage and recondition modes\u003c\/strong\u003e, for long-term maintenance and recovery of deeply discharged batteries.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature compensation\u003c\/strong\u003e, available when paired with an optional Victron temperature sensor.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eProduct overview\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe IP67 rating is what separates this unit from a standard workshop charger. It doesn't need a protected cabinet to run safely, which matters in bilge-adjacent marine spaces, outdoor generator enclosures or vehicle bays where water and grime are part of daily use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBluetooth comes as standard, not an extra. Through VictronConnect, an installer can check charge status, adjust battery type, set voltage thresholds and review history without opening the unit up, useful when it's fitted somewhere awkward to reach. The adaptive algorithm watches how the battery responds during absorption and adjusts timing rather than running a fixed cycle, which helps reduce overcharging. Recondition mode applies a controlled higher voltage to break down sulphation on lead-acid batteries, sometimes recovering units that seemed dead.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eApplications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eUsed in marine and narrowboat charging, motorhome and campervan leisure battery maintenance, vehicle workshop conditioning, off-grid cabins and outbuildings on mains or generator supply, standby power systems needing long-term float charging, and agricultural or outdoor equipment with 12V battery banks in exposed locations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's in the box\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVictron Blue Smart IP67 12\/17 charger with integrated CEE 7\/7 Schuko mains plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDC output cable with ring terminals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eConnect to a properly fused and earthed 230V CEE 7\/7 mains socket. Check DC output polarity and fuse the output cable close to the battery terminals. For LiFePO4 batteries, confirm the BMS is compatible with the charger's profile before connecting. The IP67 rating allows use in wet environments but the unit should not be permanently submerged. Marine or vehicle installation should be carried out by a qualified electrician or marine engineer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52061014917408,"sku":"BPC121713006","price":103.31,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1010\/8148\/1504\/files\/ledandsolar-bpc121713006-1.webp?v=1785509241","url":"https:\/\/www.ledandsolar.co.uk\/products\/victron-blue-smart-ip67-12-17-charger","provider":"LED \u0026 Solar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
