Victron BMV-712 Smart Battery Monitor | BAM030712000

The Victron BMV-712 Smart is a battery monitor for 12V, 24V and 48V systems, measuring voltage, current, power and consumed amp-hours to give an accurate read on state of charge. Built-in Bluetooth connects directly to the VictronConnect app on iOS and Android, so there's no separate dongle needed.

Victron BMV-712 Smart battery monitor features

• State of charge display: shows percentage, voltage, current, power and consumed amp-hours together.
• Bluetooth connectivity: pairs with the VictronConnect app for setup, live data and history.
• Programmable relay: can be set to trigger alarms or switch external devices at configurable thresholds.
• Midpoint voltage monitoring: helps flag imbalance across series-connected battery banks.
• Historical data logging: records deepest discharge, average discharge, charge cycles and time since full charge.
• Backlit display: panel-mount LCD readable in low light.

Applications

Fits off-grid solar systems, marine and narrowboat installations, motorhome and campervan leisure battery setups, and backup power systems where battery condition needs tracking. On 48V series banks, the midpoint voltage reading makes it easier to spot a battery drifting out of balance. It also integrates with the Victron GX device range, feeding data to a Venus GX or Cerbo GX for monitoring through the VRM portal.
