Description
The Blue Smart IP67 Charger is the new professional battery charger with built-in Bluetooth. This 24V 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 12A 24V 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 molded 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 aging 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

First of all insanely fast service and shipping. Second, this has been the best charger/maintainer I’ve ever used . It has so many excellent features and a low power mode for my smaller batteries. I have been using it for about a year now and it’s definitely maximizing the life of my canbat lithium battery. The power supply function has helped me a few times to get my car battery going as well. Excellent design. The build quality is top notch and the bluetooth feature is an added bonus.

This charger is amazing!!! It only takes 2 hours to charge my lithium battery on shore! Will def come back and buy more if I need to. I use this with my solar charge controller also by Victron and it works great

Works exactly as advertised. Canbat shipped it extremely fast and they have amazing chat support. This charges my Lifepo4 batteries quickly and effectively.

If you’re a techie then this is def for you! I just plugged it in and forgot about it and it works great . Using it on 2 units of the 60Ah CLI60-12 lithium batteries. I have paired it to my phone and Bluetooth function works great. Thanks canbat for shipping it so fast.

This 24V lithium charger has been good to me. I am using it on Canbat CLI150-24 battery. Yes, it charges very slow because it’s only 15A while my battery is 150Ah, but I only use my lithium battery twice a week, so I am okay with longer charging times.

I have always been loyal to Victron products because they really work well, but I’ve been having a hard time finding their products in stock in Toronto. I found Canbat online and they seem to have many Victron 24V chargers stocked and offer free shipping. I ordered a couple of these chargers and I am very happy with their service and prices. Highly recommended!

Ordered online and the charger arrived in 2 days. It came in a well-padded thick box.
