Description
The Blue Smart IP67 Charger is the new professional battery charger with built-in Bluetooth. This 13A 12A 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 IP67 13A 12V Charger Features:
- Water, dirt and oil resistant
- Five stage charge algorithm
- Recovery of fully discharged ‘dead’ batteries
- Power supply function
- Severe cold performance: down to -20°C
- LEDs for status indication
- Low power mode to charge smaller batteries
- Li-ion battery mode
- Setup and configure, readout of voltage and current by Bluetooth and APP.
Bluetooth Smart enabled
The Blue Smart IP67 Charger is the wireless solution to monitor voltage and current, to change settings and to update the charger when new features become available. With Bluetooth, the functionality of the IP67 charger is enhanced and is similar to that of our IP22 and IP65 chargers.
Completely encapsulated: waterproof, shockproof and ignition protected
Water, oil or dirt will not damage the Blue Smart IP67 Charger. The casing is made of cast aluminum and the electronics are moulded in resin.
High Efficiency
Setting a new industry standard: with 92% efficiency or better, these chargers waste three to four times less heat. And once the battery is fully charged, power consumption reduces to less than a Watt, some five to ten times better than the industry standard.
Adaptive 5-stage charge algorithm
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 ageing when the battery is not in use
The storage mode kicks in whenever the battery has not been subjected to discharge for 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 sulphation, a major cause of early battery failure.
Also charges Li-ion (LiFePO₄) batteries
LiFePO₄ batteries are charged with a simple bulk – absorption – float algorithm.
Protected against overheating
Can be used in a hot environment such as a machine room. Output current will reduce as temperature increases up to 60°C, but the charger will not fail.
Two LEDs for status indication
Yellow LED: bulk charge (blinking fast), absorption (blinking slow), float (solid), storage (off)
Green LED: power on

Now this is what I call a battery charger. The 13A 12V IP67 Victron charger is not bad at all. You can do setup, configure, and screen the status via bluetooth on your phone; and the best feature of all is that it’s water, oil, and dirt resistant. Fantastic!

It has the same functionality as the other Victron IP22 and IP65 chargers except this one is more resistant to outside, like dirt, water, oil; it’s shock proof and the casing is aluminum. If you have a system that is setup outside, then I recommend getting the IP67. It protects the batteries and itself.

Victron makes amazing products and devices, and the IP67 charger takes the cake. It charges my batteries very efficiently, maintains the power and the current. Love the fact that you can connect it to your phone via Bluetooth. Highly recommend getting this one.

Canbat is now my favorite place to buy Victron products and LIFEPO₄ batteries. Free shipping, products brand new and packaged pretty well. Their customer service is the best, always very responsive and helpful. Should have found out about them sooner.

Wanna protect your lithium ion batteries without damaging them or shortening their life span ? The Victron IP67 charger is to go. Bought a couple of 13A 12V Victron IP67 chargers and they are off the chain, so far working really great, and haven’t had any problems with them thus far. A nice feature that it has bluetooth, aluminum casing, and resistant to water and dirt; perfect for outside use.
