Victron Blue Smart IP22 Charger - Indoor
The Blue Smart IP22 Charger is the new professional battery charger with built-in Bluetooth. The Blue Smart IP22 Charger can be used on devices in your workshop and on motor vehicles, such as classic cars, motorbikes, boats, and camper vans.
1 output or 3 outputs, fan-assisted cooling
The wireless solution to monitor voltage and current, change settings, and update the charger when new features become available. Once the battery is fully charged, power consumption reduces to 0.5 watts, which is five to ten times better than the industry standard. The storage mode activates whenever the battery has not been discharged for 24 hours. In storage mode, float voltage is reduced to 2.2 V/cell (13.2 V for a 12 V battery) to minimize gassing and corrosion of the positive plates. Synchronize up to ten battery chargers in a VE.Smart network to make them charge a battery as if they were one large charger. The chargers will synchronize the charge algorithm between them.

High efficiency
With up to 94% efficiency, these chargers generate up to four times less heat compared to the industry standard. Once the battery is fully charged, power consumption reduces to 0.5 watts, which is five to ten times better than the industry standard.
AU/NZ Plug
The Blue Smart IP22 Charger is equipped with an AU/NZ plug for use with New Zealand wall sockets.
Synchronized parallel charging
Synchronize up to ten battery chargers in a VE.Smart network to make them charge a battery as if they were one large charger. The chargers will synchronize the charge algorithm between them, switching simultaneously from one charge state to another, for example from bulk to absorption. Synchronized parallel charging has several interesting advantages:
- Redundancy: if one charger stops for any reason, the other chargers will continue to operate.
- Flexibility: simply add a charger to the network if more current is needed.
- Cost: several low-power chargers will generally cost less than one high-power charger.
- Installation: several low-power chargers may be easier to fit in a confined space.
Unlike other brands, the Blue Smart IP22 Charger will attempt to recharge a deeply discharged battery by force-feeding it with a low current. Normal charging will then be resumed as soon as there is sufficient voltage across the battery terminals.
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 how the battery is being used.
Also charges Li-ion batteries. Li-ion batteries are charged with a simple bulk - absorption - float algorithm.
Note: Connections to the battery are not included with these charge controllers.
