Victron Blue Smart IP22 12/15(1) 230V CEE 7/7 Battery Charger Bargain Bin

The Blue Smart IP22 is equipped with built-in Bluetooth, so the status of the charger and the battery can be checked on a smartphone, tablet, or laptop. All settings of the charger can be configured with the VictronConnect app.Bluetooth SmartThe Blue Smart IP22 Charger is the wireless solution to monitor voltage and current, to change settings and to update thecharger when new features become available.High efficiencyWith up to 94% efficiency, these chargers generate up to four times less heat when compared to the industry standard.And once the battery is fully charged, power consumption reduces to 0,5 Watt, some five to ten times better than theindustry standard.Adaptive 6-stage charge algorithm: test - bulk absorption - recondition float storageThe Blue Smart Charger features a microprocessor-controlled 'adaptive' battery management. The adaptive feature willautomatically 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 useThe storage mode kicks in whenever the battery has not been subjected to discharge for 24 hours. In the storagemode, float voltage is reduced to 2,2V/cell (13,2V for a 12V battery) to minimize gassing and corrosion of the positiveplates. Once a week the voltage is raised back to the absorption level to 'equalize' the battery. This feature preventsstratification of the electrolyte and sulfation, a major cause of early battery failure.Also charges Li-ion (LiFePO) batteriesLiFePO batteries are charged with a simple bulk absorption float algorithm.NIGHT and LOW settingWhen in NIGHT or LOW mode, the output current is reduced to max. 50% of the nominal output and the charger will betotally noiseless. The NIGHT mode automatically ends after 8 hours. The LOW mode can be ended manually.Protected against overheatingOutput current will reduce as the temperature increases up to 50°C, but the Blue Smart Charger will not fail.Eleven LEDs for status indicationCharge algorithm: TEST / BULK / ABSORPTION / RECONDITION / FLOAT / STORAGE / READY.MODE button to set: NORMAL (14,4V) / HIGH (14,7V) / RECONDITION / LI-ION.
