xVictron Blue Smart IP65 Charger 12V 10A with CEE 7/16 Plug
The Victron Blue Smart IP65 12/10 is a single-output, Bluetooth-enabled battery charger rated at 12V 10A, designed for professional and trade use in vehicles, marine applications, and off-grid installations. Its IP65 rating makes it suitable for use in damp or dusty environments where a standard charger would not be appropriate.
Key Features
- IP65-rated enclosure: protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets, suitable for outdoor and workshop environments.
- Bluetooth connectivity built in: monitor and adjust charging parameters via the VictronConnect app on iOS or Android without additional hardware.
- 12V 10A output: suitable for charging lead-acid (AGM, Gel, flooded) and lithium (LiFePO4) battery banks up to approximately 200Ah.
- Multi-stage adaptive charging algorithm: automatically adjusts charge profile based on battery condition to extend battery service life.
- CEE 7/16 (Europlug) mains input: compact two-pin plug standard, supplied ready to use.
- DC output via integrated connector: direct, secure connection to the battery without loose ring terminals or crocodile clips.
- Storage mode: automatically reduces to a maintenance float when the battery is fully charged, preventing overcharge during long-term storage.
Product Overview
The Blue Smart IP65 range uses a fully sealed, splash-resistant housing that allows installation in engine bays, battery compartments, and outbuildings where moisture and dust are a concern. The IP65 rating is a meaningful practical advantage over standard IP20 or IP22 chargers in these environments, not just a specification point.
Bluetooth integration via VictronConnect gives installers and end users real-time visibility of charge state, voltage, current, and fault codes directly from a smartphone. Charge profiles can be customised for different battery chemistries and capacities, including user-defined settings for specialist battery types. This removes the need for a separate monitoring device or a laptop connection during commissioning.
The 10A output is well matched to 12V battery banks in the 50Ah to 200Ah range, covering the majority of leisure vehicle, motorhome, boat, and small off-grid battery installations. The charger ships in retail packaging and includes the DC output connector, making it suitable for resale or direct supply to end customers.

Installation Notes
This charger connects to a standard 230V AC mains supply via the supplied CEE 7/16 plug. Ensure the mains circuit is protected by an appropriate MCB and that the installation location allows adequate ventilation around the unit. The DC output connector should be wired to the battery terminals using suitably rated cable for the 10A output current. For installations in vehicles or marine craft, ensure DC wiring complies with relevant standards (BS EN ISO 13297 for marine, or equivalent). Although this charger is suitable for competent self-installation in straightforward applications, any work involving the mains supply should be carried out by a qualified electrician.
