Absolutely Brilliant! - My off grid Solar Panel setup has two 100ah LifePO4 Batteries with built in Battery Management Systems (BMS). The BMS protects the batteries, including the battery temperature, overcharging or the voltage falling too low/undercharging (Under Voltage Protection UVP). The problem is that when the voltage falls below the trigger level, the BMS UVP steps in and cuts off the battery voltage and from then on, the battery voltage reads as zero and most Battery Chargers that are 'supposedly' suitable for LifePO4 Batteries, will not recognise this scenario/state and as such, will not charge the battery, no matter how long you leave it connected. However, when the Victron Energy Blue Smart Charger is connected to the battery, it initially carries out a test and if there is no voltage, it will automatically reset the BMS UVP and start the charging process. For this reason alone, this battery charger is worth paying more for. This Victron Charger oozes quality, it is well designed and constructed and is simple enough to use straight out of the box. You just need to select the battery type and leave it to it. Once connected it carries out a quick battery test and within a minute, it is pumping up to 15 amps into the battery (if required). The Victron App is very useful in that you can view the charging process from a short distance and alter settings, but BE AWARE that you do need to be quite close to the Charger, i.e., you can't check it from a different location. It will reach from my house to the wooden garage but no further. An Added Bonus with this Charger, is that it can also be used as an adjustable Power Supply which is really useful for my Solar Panel setup (shown above), in that I can leave the Charger connected (in Power Supply mode) to my batteries whilst being plugged into the Grid Mains, and if the Batteries voltage drops below a pre-set voltage, say 12.90 volts, the Victron will step in and start supplying power but will then stop supplying once the batteries voltage is above 12.90 volts. To conclude, no major issues to date but I will edit this review if necessary. It works really well and I have no hesitation in Highly Recommending this upmarket charger. Review: Simple to understand and use - I plugged it into my flat T2 VW camper van left it to do its thing, checked every so often on a handy app on my phone and it told me when it was fully charged, it works a treat! Also you can keep it plugged in when you are not using van and it keeps it topped up. It seems very well made and a great price. I’m very happy with this bit of kit. ## Features - Take this water, dust, and chemical resistant charger with you wherever you go, whether it's on your boat, yacht, classic car, motorcycle, camper-van, or workshop. The Victron Energy Blue Smart IP65 Charger is the perfect solution for all your battery charging needs. Experience the ultimate power and convenience! - This professional and innovative and battery charger is equipped with a built-in Bluetooth feature. Using the Victron Connect app, you can adjust charging settings and monitor real-time and historic battery charging data - With its 7-step charging algorithm, this charger will provide the perfect balance of power your battery needs to maximize its performance and ensure a longer life - This charger will revive even deeply-discharged batteries from 0V with its force-feeding feature. Once the battery has enough voltage, normal charging will resume - Say goodbye to complicated connections! Comes with easy to use alligator clips. Or, leave the M8 eyelets permanently connected to your battery and simply connect/disconnect the charger using the included quick connectors! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09KKH7Y5D | | Amperage | 5 Amps | | Best Sellers Rank | 7,656 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) 69 in Car Battery Charging Units | | Brand | Victron Energy | | Brand Name | Victron Energy | | Colour | Blue | | Connector Types | Alligator clips, Quick connectors, M8 eyelets | | Country of Origin | India | | Current Rating | 5 Amps | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 162 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 08719076041214 | | Input Voltage | 230 Volts | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 18D x 28W x 5H centimetres | | Item Weight | 0.96 Kilograms | | Item weight | 0.96 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Victron Energy | | Manufacturer Part Number | BPC120533024R | | Model Number | BPC120533024R | | Number of Ports | 1 | | Output Voltage | 12 Volts (DC) | | Output voltage | 12 Volts (DC) | | Product Warranty | 5 Year Warranty | | Product dimensions | 18D x 28W x 5H centimetres | | Specification Met | IEC, CE, UL, RoHS | | Specification met | IEC, CE, UL, RoHS | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Victron Energy - **Colour:** Blue - **Item weight:** 0.96 Kilograms - **Output voltage:** 12 Volts (DC) - **Product dimensions:** 18D x 28W x 5H centimetres ## Images ![Blue Smart IP65 12-Volt 5 amp 230V, Battery Charger, Bluetooth (UK) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61f55kYhR2L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: What types of batteries can the Blue Smart IP65 Charger work with?** A: Blue Smart IP65 charges any starter/leisure battery: LiFePO4, lead-acid, AGM, gel, flooded. In VictronConnect, choose 1 of 8 charge presets or build a custom profile. Ideal for automotive, marine, and motorhome use. **Q: How does reviving dead batteries work?** A: On connection, the Blue Smart Charger runs a quick battery test. If it detects a fully discharged battery, it can revive it from 0V by applying low current until voltage is high enough for normal charging. Ideal for seasonal or long-stored equipment. **Q: How do I choose the right charger for my battery?** A: Check battery label for voltage (12V/24V), Ah, and max charge rate (A or C-rate). Choose a charger that matches voltage and stays within that limit. If C-rate is given, max amps = CΓ—Ah (100Ah at 0.3C=30A). Low-current mode helps small batteries. **Q: What is the difference between 7-stage charging and regular charging?** A: Blue Smart IP65 uses 7-stage charging (test, bulk, absorption, float, refresh, recondition, storage) vs typical 2-3 stages. It optimizes each phase for faster, fuller charging and up to 15% longer battery life, auto switching fast/slow. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Victron Energy Blue Smart 15A.......
