The IP65 rating means it can tolerate condensation and incidental water exposure, though it should not be submerged or left in standing water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBluetooth connectivity is handled through the VictronConnect app, which gives access to real-time charge status, historical data and battery type configuration. This is particularly useful when the charger is installed in a location that is not easily accessible, such as under a seat or inside a storage compartment. No dongle or separate Bluetooth module is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAt 5A output, this charger is suited to batteries in the range of approximately 14Ah to 100Ah, depending on the application and acceptable charge time. The adaptive charge algorithm adjusts absorption time based on battery condition, which helps avoid overcharging batteries that are already partially charged.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSKU: BPC120533064R\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOutput voltage: 12V\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOutput current: 5A\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMains plug: CEE 7\/17 (Schuko-compatible)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIP rating: IP65\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInput supply: 230V AC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNumber of outputs: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeight: 0.647 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGTIN: 8719076039976\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMaintaining and charging 12V batteries in campervans, motorhomes and caravans.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBoat and marine battery charging where moisture resistance is required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSeasonal battery maintenance for motorcycles, classic vehicles and garden machinery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOff-grid cabins and small solar installations requiring a mains-powered backup charger.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWorkshop or garage use where a compact, Bluetooth-monitored charger is preferred.\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 IP65 12\/5 charger (1 unit)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCEE 7\/17 mains plug (factory fitted)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDC output connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRetail packaging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis charger is suitable for competent DIY installation in low-voltage DC applications such as vehicles and leisure batteries.
