Highlights of the 12/15(1) Blue Smart IP22 Charger
Intelligent charging, up to the perfect battery condition...
The seven-stage charging algorithm gets the best out of your battery. The charger supplies the battery with the energy it needs, keeps it in a healthy condition, ensures better performance... and a longer life.
Recovery of deeply discharged "dead" batteries
Unlike most other brands and product lines, the Blue Smart IP22 charger will try to recharge a deeply discharged battery by forcing a weak charging current on it. Normal charging operation then resumes as soon as sufficient voltage is present between the battery terminals.
Check battery status remotely with the VictronConnect app
The Blue Smart IP22 12/15(1) charger has built-in Bluetooth. This lets you check the status of the charger and the battery on a smartphone, tablet or laptop. All settings of the charger can be configured with the VictronConnect app.

Other performance features of the 12/15(1) Blue Smart IP22 Battery Charger
Pioneering efficiency
With an efficiency of up to 94%, these chargers produce up to four times less heat compared to the industry standard. In addition, once the battery is fully charged, power consumption drops to less than 0.5 watts, which is about five to ten times better than the industry standard.
Adaptive 7-stage charging algorithm
The 12/15(1) Blue Smart charger is distinguished by its microprocessor-controlled "adaptive" battery management. "Adaptive" means that the charging process is automatically adjusted to the way the battery is used.
Storage mode: Less maintenance and aging when the battery is at rest
Storage mode is activated whenever no discharge has occurred within 24 hours. The float voltage is then lowered to 2.2V/cell (13.2V for a 12V battery) in order to minimize gas formation and thus prevent corrosion of the positive plates. Once a week, the voltage is raised to the gassing voltage level. This achieves a kind of equalization charge that prevents electrolyte stratification and sulfation - the two main causes of premature battery failure.
