Its IP65 rating makes it suitable for use in damp or dusty environments where a standard charger would not be appropriate. It connects via a CEE 7\/17 plug for standard 230V European and UK mains supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIP65-rated enclosure: fully protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets, suitable for outdoor or workshop environments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBluetooth built-in: configure charge algorithms, monitor charge status, and view battery data via the VictronConnect app on iOS or Android.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e24V output at 13A with a single DC output channel for direct battery connection.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMulti-stage adaptive charging algorithm automatically adjusts to battery condition, including bulk, absorption, and float phases.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with multiple battery chemistries: lead-acid (flooded, gel, AGM) and lithium (LiFePO4) with selectable charge profiles.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStorage mode reduces float voltage to minimise battery degradation during long-term storage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCEE 7\/17 mains plug for 230V AC input, compatible with standard European schuko sockets.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact and lightweight at 1.91 kg, with a DC connector output for straightforward installation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Blue Smart IP65 range uses a fully sealed, dust and splash-proof housing that sets it apart from standard workshop chargers. The IP65 rating is relevant in practice for engine bays, boat bilge areas, caravans, and any installation where moisture or debris is a realistic concern. The charger can be left connected without the risk of ingress damage that would affect an unrated unit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBluetooth connectivity via VictronConnect removes the need for a separate display or manual adjustment. Charge profiles can be set and monitored remotely from a phone, which is particularly useful when the charger is installed in a confined or hard-to-access location. The app also logs historical charge data, which can be useful for diagnosing battery health over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe adaptive multi-stage algorithm monitors battery response during the absorption phase and adjusts charge time accordingly. This means a battery in good condition will move to float sooner, while a deeply discharged or older battery receives a longer absorption cycle. The storage mode, activated automatically after a period in float, reduces voltage further to slow self-discharge and minimise plate corrosion in lead-acid batteries.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSKU: BPC241331064\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOutput voltage: 24V\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOutput current: 13A\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNumber of outputs: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eInput: 230V AC, CEE 7\/17 plug\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIP rating: IP65\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeight: 1.91 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGTIN: 8719076046523\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCharging 24V lead-acid or lithium battery banks in campervans, motorhomes, and caravans.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMarine battery maintenance on 24V systems in damp or salt-air environments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWorkshop or fleet charging of 24V vehicle batteries where a splash-proof unit is required.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOff-grid cabin or shed battery maintenance where the charger is exposed to dust or condensation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLong-term storage charging for seasonal vehicles or equipment with 24V battery systems.\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 24\/13 charger unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCEE 7\/17 mains plug (230V AC input)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDC output connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis charger is intended for connection to a 230V AC mains supply via the supplied CEE 7\/17 plug. Ensure the mains circuit is protected by an appropriate fuse or circuit breaker. The DC output should be connected to the battery with correct polarity; refer to the battery manufacturer's specifications for the appropriate charge voltage settings, particularly when configuring lithium profiles via VictronConnect. While the IP65 rating provides environmental protection, the unit should not be submerged or exposed to continuous water flow. For permanent installation in a vehicle or marine application, a qualified auto-electrician or marine electrician should carry out the wiring.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59863673143630,"sku":"BPC241331064","price":126.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/3698\/8238\/files\/VoltaconSolar_-_BPC241331064_-_Blue_Smart_IP65_Charger_24-13_1_230V_CEE_7-17.webp?v=1781183193","url":"https:\/\/voltaconsolar.com\/products\/victron-blue-smart-ip65-charger-24v-13a","provider":"VoltaconSolar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
