It connects via a standard UK BS 1363 plug and includes Bluetooth built in, allowing full monitoring and control through the Victron Connect app. It suits professional installers, vehicle converters, marine engineers and anyone who needs a reliable, programmable charger for a fixed or mobile 12V system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e20A charge current for 12V battery banks, delivered through a single output\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBuilt-in Bluetooth for monitoring and configuration via the free VictronConnect app on iOS and Android\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIP22 rated enclosure, suitable for use in engine bays, vans, boats and other sheltered but potentially damp environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with a wide range of 12V battery chemistries including AGM, Gel, flooded lead-acid and lithium (LiFePO4) with selectable charge profiles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSeven-stage adaptive charging algorithm with battery conditioning and storage mode\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSupplied with a UK BS 1363 mains plug, ready to connect to a standard 230V socket\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact and lightweight at 1.3 kg, making it practical for permanent installation or portable use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Blue Smart IP22 12\/20 uses a seven-stage adaptive charging process that adjusts to the condition of the battery. This includes bulk, absorption and float stages, plus a storage mode that maintains the battery at an optimal state of charge without overcharging. A battery conditioning pulse is applied periodically to help recover stratified or lightly sulphated lead-acid cells. For lithium batteries, a dedicated LiFePO4 profile is selectable via the app.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBluetooth connectivity is built directly into the charger, not added via an external dongle. Through VictronConnect, an installer or end user can view real-time charge status, adjust the charge profile, set charge current limits and review historical data. This is particularly useful for installations where the charger is mounted in an enclosed space and physical access is limited.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe IP22 rating means the unit is protected against solid objects greater than 12.5mm and against direct water spray. It is not waterproof and should not be mounted where it will be exposed to rain or submersion, but it is well suited to engine compartments, under-seat battery boxes and similar sheltered locations on vehicles and vessels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSKU: BPC122042022\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBattery voltage: 12V\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCharge current: 20A\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNumber of outputs: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInput voltage: 230V AC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMains plug: UK BS 1363\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIP rating: IP22\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeight: 1.3 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGTIN: 8719076041061\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCharging and maintaining 12V leisure batteries in campervans, motorhomes and caravans\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMarine battery charging on boats and narrowboats with shore power connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWorkshop or garage battery maintenance for vehicles in storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFixed installation in off-grid cabins or outbuildings with a 230V mains supply\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCharging 12V lithium (LiFePO4) battery banks in mobile or static installations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eWhat Is Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVictron Blue Smart IP22 12\/20 charger (1 output)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eUK BS 1363 mains plug (factory fitted)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis charger connects to a standard 230V UK mains socket via the supplied BS 1363 plug. Ensure the battery connections are correctly rated for 20A continuous current and that the installation location meets the IP22 protection requirements (sheltered from direct rain and submersion). For lithium battery installations, confirm that the battery management system (BMS) is compatible with external chargers before connecting. While this unit does not require a certified electrician for basic plug-in use, any fixed wiring or integration into a vehicle or vessel electrical system should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent marine engineer.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59856047931726,"sku":"BPC122042022","price":105.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/3698\/8238\/files\/VoltaconSolar_-_BPC122042022_-_Blue_Smart_IP22_Charger_12-20_1_230V_UK.webp?v=1781101908","url":"https:\/\/voltaconsolar.com\/products\/victron-blue-smart-ip22-charger-12v-20a-uk","provider":"VoltaconSolar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
