The Victron Blue Smart IP67 Charger 12/7 is a single-output mains battery charger for 12V lead-acid and lithium battery banks. Sealed to IP67, it copes with dust and temporary water immersion, so it can stay fitted in places a standard charger would not survive. It fits a standard UK BS 1363 plug and is controlled through the VictronConnect app over Bluetooth.

Key features of this Victron Blue Smart charger

• IP67 rated, dustproof and protected against temporary immersion up to 1 metre.
• Bluetooth built-in, configure settings and monitor charge status live via VictronConnect on iOS or Android.
• 7A output, single output for 12V battery systems.
• UK BS 1363 plug, fitted as standard for UK 230V supplies.
• Adaptive charging, a multi-stage algorithm adjusts to battery condition and type, with a recondition cycle for sulphated lead-acid batteries.
• Battery compatibility, works with GEL, AGM and flooded lead-acid, plus lithium (LiFePO4) when the correct profile is selected.

Where it fits

The sealed enclosure suits engine bays, bilges, battery compartments and outdoor enclosures where moisture or occasional water exposure is likely. At 1.8 kg it mounts without needing much space. Bluetooth control means no display is needed on the unit itself, useful once it is fitted somewhere hard to reach: you can pick battery type and capacity, check the charge phase, review history, and update firmware from the app.

At 7A output, it suits batteries in the 40Ah to 200Ah range for maintenance and top-up charging rather than fast charging large banks. Storage mode keeps a battery in good condition during long periods without use, without overcharging it.

Typical uses

• Marine and narrowboat 12V battery maintenance in bilge or wet compartments.
• Motorhome and caravan leisure battery charging from mains hookup.
• Vehicle fleet battery maintenance where chargers stay connected in exposed bays.
• Off-grid cabin or outbuilding battery top-up from mains or generator supply.
• Long-term storage maintenance for seasonal vehicles or equipment.

Installation notes

Connects to a UK 230V mains supply via the fitted BS 1363 plug. Check output polarity before powering on. The IP67 rating covers the sealed enclosure, but output cable connections and battery terminals should still be kept from prolonged submersion. Ensure any fixed wiring complies with relevant BS or IET regulations, and consult a qualified electrician or marine engineer if unsure.
