The Blue Smart IP22 Charger is the new professional battery charger with built-in Bluetooth. This 12V 30A Charger can be used on devices in your workshop and on motor vehicles, such as (classic) cars; motorbikes; boats and camper-vans and can be used on both AGM and lithium batteries.
Victron IP22 12V 30A Charger Features:
- Optimal battery charge management for long battery life
- Six stages smart charge algorithm
- Recovery of fully discharged ‘dead’ batteries
- Power supply function
- Severe cold performance: down to -40°C
- Several other battery life enhancing features
- Low power mode to charge smaller batteries
- Li-ion battery mode
- Setup and configure, readout of voltage and current by Bluetooth Smart
The VictronConnect App Setup
Readout and configure your Blue Smart IP22 Charger via your smartphone!
You can display the status of your charger and battery and even control the functions of your charger using the VictronConnect app. On your screen, the readout of voltage and current is the default.

Bluetooth Smart
The Blue Smart IP22 Charger is the wireless solution to monitor voltage and current, to change settings and to update the charger when new features become available.
High efficiency
With up to 94% efficiency, these chargers generate up to four times less heat when compared to the industry standard. And once the battery is fully charged, power consumption reduces to 0,5 Watt, some five to ten times better than the industry standard.
Adaptive 6-stage charge algorithm: test – bulk – absorption – recondition – float – storage
The Blue Smart Charger features a microprocessor controlled ‘adaptive’ battery management. The adaptive feature will automatically optimize the charging process relative to the way the battery is being used.
Storage Mode: less maintenance and aging when the battery is not in use
The storage mode kicks in whenever the battery has not been subjected to discharge during 24 hours. In the storage mode float voltage is reduced to 2,2V/cell (13,2V for a 12V battery) to minimize gassing and corrosion of the positive plates. Once a week the voltage is raised back to the absorption level to ‘equalize’ the battery. This feature prevents stratification of the electrolyte and sulfation, a major cause of early battery failure.
Also charges Li-ion batteries Li-ion batteries are charged with a simple bulk – absorption – float algorithm.
Fully discharged battery recovery function
Will initiate charging even if the battery has been discharged to zero volts. Will reconnect to a fully discharged Li-ion battery with internal disconnect function.
NIGHT and LOW setting When in NIGHT or LOW mode
The output current is reduced to max. 50% of the nominal output and the charger will be totally noiseless. The NIGHT mode automatically ends after 8 hours. The LOW mode can be ended manually.
Protected against overheating
Output current will reduce as temperature increases up to 50°C, but the Blue Smart Charger will not fail
Eleven LEDs for status indication
Charge algorithm: TEST / BULK / ABSORPTION / RECONDITION / FLOAT / STORAGE / READY. MODE button to set: NORMAL (14.4V) / HIGH (14.7V) / RECONDITION / LI-ION.

Perfect 30A charger for a 100Ah LiFePO4 battery. It charges my 12V 100Ah Battle Born battery within 2-3 hours, depending on how much I’ve used it. I wish I had known about Canbat from before than I would have not only bought the charger from them, but also the lithium battery. I would love to support a Canadian company and buy local. Customer support on live chat is great. I messaged them at 4 AM and they answered all my questions. Highly impressed and very much recommended!

I feel like the built quality of this IP22 Victron lithium charger is not as good as their IP67 version, but I had to buy it because I needed a 30A charger and Victron only makes it in IP22. Nevertheless, the charger is working great and I love it. The Bluetooth app is also very cool.

The best price on lithium chargers in Canada AND free shipping? I have nothing to say about Canbat but great things. I chatted with Melissa and she led me to this 30A lithium charger. I’ve had it for 2 months now and I am loving it. Quality of the charger is great, the bluetooth is awesome and the customer service is the best!

Great lithium charger, couldn’t be easier to install. Bluetooth works with IOS app and Andriod. The app shows exactly what the charger is doing and what charging state its at. Emailed Canbat for some pre-purchae advice and got a response in 13 minutes! The charger was installed on a VW T5, single 150ah LiFePO4 battery. #vanlife

Excellent charger for AGM and amazing customer service from Canbat. The five stars is for Canbat, not the charger. It works great, but you have to buy charging leads separately, which is weird. Unfortunately, Victron instructions are useless and doesn’t explain things much better. Very pleased otherwise with Canbat.

Victron doesn’t include charging leads and you have to buy them seperately, which is highly inconvenient. I ended up making my own because it’s much cheaper. Charger works great and the Bluetooth app for monitor charge perfoamnce is very useful.

Charger works great! Runs a bit hot at about 40 degrees C but has its own over temperature monitoring and such so no worries.
Can also run at half power (15A) if you want a gentler charge.
Can also be used as a power supply, very handy!
I used 10AWG wire to connect to my battery bank with no issues. Yes, it’s true, the charger doesn’t come with charging leads but it’s very clear from the listing so everyone can stop complaining about that!
The Bluetooth app and connectivity work great. Lots of customization options in the app.
Good features on the charger itself, very quick to get setup and charging.
I use mine to charge my LiFePo4 battery bank during off peak time-of-use electricity; I have it plugged into a standard timer and it starts up no problem, remembers the settings I entered and resumes just like it was never unplugged. Works perfectly!
Victron is known for quality and this charger is no exception!
Highly recommend.

We started with great customer service from Canbat and ended up with a Victron charger with no cables. I don’t understand how Victron assumes customers know this. It’s not in any of their literature. I had to return the Victron charger and buy a different one. I went with the Canbat 40A LiFePO4 battery charger and it’s great, but I don’t recommend this IP22 to anyone. Not just because it doesn’t come with the cables, but also why wouldn’t I want a charger that doesn’t have a factory-installed cable for the sake of safety? We’re not all electricians!
