It measures state of charge, voltage, current, power consumption and time remaining, giving installers and system operators accurate, real-time data on battery health and usage. It is suited to off-grid solar, marine, motorhome and backup power installations where reliable battery monitoring is essential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDisplays state of charge (%), voltage, current (amps), consumed amp-hours, instantaneous power (watts) and time remaining.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with 12V, 24V and 48V battery systems, including lead-acid (AGM, gel, flooded) and lithium chemistries.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-accuracy current measurement via a dedicated 500A shunt (included), with a resolution of 10mA for precise low-current readings.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProgrammable relay output that can trigger alarms or control external devices based on configurable thresholds.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBacklit display with intuitive button navigation; no smartphone or app required for basic operation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBluetooth connectivity available via optional VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle, enabling monitoring through the Victron Connect app.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVE.Direct port for integration with Victron GX devices, MPPT solar charge controllers and other compatible equipment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack housing finish for installations where aesthetics matter, such as yacht interiors or motorhome cabins.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BMV-702 builds on the original BMV-700 by adding a second voltage input, which allows simultaneous monitoring of a starter battery or mid-point voltage in a series battery bank. This is particularly useful on marine and vehicle installations where the house bank and starter battery need to be watched independently. The second input does not require an additional shunt; it connects directly to the terminal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAccurate state of charge calculation depends on correctly configured battery capacity and charge efficiency settings. The BMV-702 allows full customisation of these parameters, including Peukert exponent and charge efficiency factor, so readings remain accurate across different battery chemistries and usage patterns. The programmable relay can be set to activate on low state of charge, low voltage, high voltage or other conditions, making it straightforward to wire in an alarm or automatic load disconnect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe VE.Direct port means the BMV-702 integrates directly into a Victron system managed by a Cerbo GX or Venus GX, where its data appears on the system overview alongside solar yield, inverter status and grid information. This makes it a practical choice for any Victron-based installation rather than a standalone instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSKU: BAM010702200\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGTIN: 8719076020110\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWeight: 0.627 kg\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHousing colour: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShunt included: 500A \/ 50mV\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible battery voltages: 12V, 24V, 48V\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCommunication: VE.Direct port\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eApplications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOff-grid solar installations requiring accurate battery state of charge monitoring.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMarine and yacht installations with separate house and starter battery banks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMotorhomes, campervans and leisure vehicles with 12V or 24V house batteries.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBackup power and UPS systems where battery condition needs continuous monitoring.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eVictron-based energy systems integrated with GX monitoring devices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTelecom and remote site installations with 48V battery banks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eWhat Is Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBMV-702 display unit (black)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e500A \/ 50mV shunt\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e10-metre RJ12 cable (display to shunt)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTemperature sensor\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMounting hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"color: #f87c24;\"\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BMV-702 shunt must be installed on the negative conductor of the battery bank, with all loads and charge sources connected to the load side of the shunt. Incorrect wiring will produce inaccurate readings. While the unit itself is low voltage and does not require specialist certification to install, it is typically fitted as part of a wider battery or solar system. For any installation involving mains-connected inverters, grid-tied equipment or high-capacity lithium battery systems, a qualified electrician or MCS-accredited installer should carry out the work. Ensure the battery chemistry and capacity settings are correctly programmed after installation to achieve accurate state of charge readings.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victron Energy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":59856047407438,"sku":"BAM010702200","price":95.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/3698\/8238\/files\/VoltaconSolar_-_BAM010702200_-_Battery_Monitor_BMV-702_BLACK.webp?v=1781101903","url":"https:\/\/voltaconsolar.com\/products\/victron-bmv-702-battery-monitor-black","provider":"VoltaconSolar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
