xVictron Blue Smart IP65 Charger 6V/12V 1.1A 230V (UK Plug)
The Victron Blue Smart IP65 1.1A is a compact, weatherproof battery charger for 6V and 12V lead-acid and lithium batteries. Designed for motorcycles, small leisure vehicles, garden machinery and seasonal equipment, it connects via a standard UK BS 1363 plug and is controlled through the VictronConnect app over Bluetooth. It suits both professional installers and end users who need a reliable maintenance charger for smaller battery banks.
Key Features
- IP65-rated enclosure: dust-tight and protected against low-pressure water jets, suitable for use in damp or outdoor environments.
- Bluetooth built-in: configure charge settings, monitor charge status and view history via the free VictronConnect app on iOS and Android.
- Compatible with 6V and 12V batteries including AGM, Gel, flooded lead-acid and lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4).
- 1.1A output current: appropriate for smaller batteries typically found in motorcycles, ride-on mowers, jet skis and similar equipment.
- Supplied with a UK BS 1363 mains plug: ready to use in Great Britain and Northern Ireland without an adaptor.
- Seven-step adaptive charging algorithm: conditions, charges and maintains the battery to extend service life.
- Storage mode: reduces charge voltage after 24 hours to minimise battery stress during long-term storage.
Product Overview
The Blue Smart IP65 range uses a multi-step charging algorithm that moves through conditioning, bulk, absorption and float phases automatically. The 1.1A variant is sized for batteries up to approximately 30Ah, making it well suited to seasonal or standby applications where a battery may sit unused for extended periods. Storage mode activates after 24 hours at float voltage and reduces the charge level to limit electrolyte loss and plate stress.
Bluetooth connectivity is built directly into the charger, not added via an external dongle. Through VictronConnect, users can select the correct battery type and voltage, adjust charge parameters, and review historical charge data. This is particularly useful when a charger is installed in a locker or compartment where the LED indicators are not easily visible. The IP65 rating means the unit can be mounted in engine bays, outbuildings or boat bilge areas without additional weatherproofing.
The charger operates from 230V AC mains and is supplied with a UK BS 1363 three-pin plug. It is compatible with the Victron VE.Direct accessory ecosystem, and the VictronConnect app is available at no cost from the Apple App Store and Google Play.

Installation Notes
This charger connects directly to a standard 230V UK mains socket and requires no specialist installation for typical use. Ensure the battery voltage (6V or 12V) is correctly selected in VictronConnect before first use. When mounting in a fixed location such as a boat or vehicle, secure the unit to a surface that allows adequate ventilation and keeps the unit away from direct fuel or oil exposure. For lithium battery types, confirm the battery BMS is compatible with the charger's LiFePO4 charge profile before connecting.
