The 30A Blue Smart IP22 6-stage battery charger with built-in Bluetooth is a professional quality charger featuring microprocessor-controlled, adaptive charging technology. The battery management software monitors the way the battery is used and automatically optimises the charging process to suit the usage pattern, so maintaining your battery in the best possible condition. This model has 3 positive outputs and a common negative output, allowing 3 independent batteries (or banks) to be charged simultaneously.
This smart, multi-stage charger operates at up to 93% efficiency and generates up to 4x less heat than some other comparable chargers. When the battery is fully charged and has not been used for 24 hours, storage mode kicks in and power consumption drops to less than 0.5W. Cooling is achieved by a near-silent fan and the unit is fully protected against over-temperature, short circuit and reverse polarity.
Built-in Bluetooth allows you to monitor the status of your charger via any Android or Apple device and all settings of the charger can be configured with the VictronConnect app.
Suitable for all lead-acid batteries (particularly leisure or 'deep-cycle' batteries) and Lithium batteries used in caravans, motorhomes, campervans, cars, boats, off-road, industrial and commercial vehicles
Recommended for batteries with a capacity in the range of 150 - 250Ah (or up to around 300Ah in total if charging multiple batteries).

Very happy.
Charges three battery banks and the link to my phone so i can see what's going on is great.
Also needed to call 12 volt planet for advice and the support was excellent.
Also the price was very competative.

Bought for my motor cruiser with multiple batteries and am very impressed with it.
The app makes it very easy to view charging rates and change settings etc. Also very low power consumption and no noise! Highly recommend.
Excellent compact charger 13 February 2018 | Kenneth
I installed this in my boat and have been very impressed. It’s small physical size was a key factor in my choice but that’s far from the only benefit. The Bluetooth connectivity means I can monitor charging from my phone in quite a bit of detail. Overall a very good piece of equipment, not the cheapest but worth the price.
