The Victron Blue Smart IP65 12/4 is a compact, single-output battery charger rated at 12V 4A, designed for charging lead-acid and lithium batteries in vehicles, boats, caravans and off-grid applications.

Product Overview
The Blue Smart IP65 range uses a fully sealed, splash-resistant housing that allows installation or use in locations where a standard charger would be unsuitable, such as engine bays, outbuildings or marine environments. The IP65 rating covers both dust and directed water, giving it a meaningful advantage over unrated chargers in practical field use.
The 4A charge rate is well matched to batteries in the 14Ah to 100Ah range, making it a practical choice for motorcycles, small leisure vehicles, caravans and backup battery systems. The multi-stage charging process includes bulk, absorption and float phases, with an optional storage mode for long-term battery maintenance. All charge parameters can be viewed and adjusted through the VictronConnect app over Bluetooth, which removes the need for a separate interface cable or PC software.
This unit ships with a CEE 7/16 Europlug, which is the standard two-pin plug used across continental Europe. UK buyers should note this plug type is not compatible with standard UK three-pin sockets and will require an appropriate adaptor or socket. The DC output uses a pre-fitted connector rather than bare leads or ring terminals.

Installation Notes
This charger is designed for straightforward connection to a 12V battery via the supplied DC connector. Ensure the mains supply voltage matches the unit's 230V AC input rating. UK users must use a suitable plug adaptor, as the CEE 7/16 Europlug is not compatible with BS 1363 (UK three-pin) sockets. Always connect the DC output to the battery before connecting the mains supply. For installations in vehicles or marine craft, ensure the charger is mounted in a ventilated location away from fuel sources. No specialist electrical qualification is required for basic battery charging use, but any permanent wiring into a vehicle or vessel should be carried out by a competent electrician or qualified marine engineer.
