Description
xVictron Skylla-i 24/100 (1+1) 230V Battery Charger
The Victron Skylla-i 24/100 (1+1) is a high-power 24V battery charger delivering 100A of charge current from a 230V AC supply. It is designed for professional and commercial installations where reliable, high-current battery charging is required. The (1+1) configuration provides two independently controlled output banks, making it well suited to systems with separate battery banks or where charge distribution is needed.
Key Features
- 100A total charge output at 24V from a single 230V AC input.
- (1+1) dual output configuration allows two battery banks to be charged independently from one unit.
- Adaptive charge algorithm with four-stage charging: bulk, absorption, float and storage.
- Charge current is automatically reduced when AC input power is limited, preventing generator or shore power overload.
- VE.Bus and VE.Net compatible for integration with Victron system monitoring and control.
- Built-in battery temperature sensor input for temperature-compensated charging.
- Programmable charge parameters via Victron software, allowing adaptation to different battery chemistries.
- Robust metal enclosure rated for demanding installation environments.
Product Overview
The Skylla-i 24/100 (1+1) uses a high-frequency switching topology to deliver a stable, regulated charge output. The four-stage adaptive charge algorithm extends battery life by moving through bulk, absorption, float and storage phases based on actual battery state rather than fixed timers. This matters in practice because batteries that are regularly overcharged or held at absorption voltage for too long degrade faster, particularly in standby and backup applications.
The (1+1) output split means the unit provides one primary 100A output bank and one auxiliary output bank. This is particularly useful in marine, vehicle or off-grid installations where a starter battery and a service battery bank need to be maintained separately. The auxiliary output charges the secondary bank once the primary bank reaches float, preventing drain on the main bank without requiring a separate charger.
Integration with the Victron VE.Bus and VE.Net communication networks allows the Skylla-i to operate as part of a larger Victron system. Charge parameters can be adjusted remotely, and the unit will respond to system-level commands such as charge current limiting when AC supply capacity is constrained. This is a key consideration when the charger is fed from a generator with a fixed kVA rating.

Installation Notes
The Skylla-i 24/100 should be installed by a qualified electrician. The unit connects to a 230V AC supply and delivers high DC charge currents, so correct cable sizing, fusing and ventilation are essential. Battery connections must be rated for the full 100A output. If the charger is being integrated into a Victron VE.Bus or VE.Net system, configuration should be carried out using Victron software by a competent installer familiar with the platform. Ensure the installation environment is dry and that the unit is mounted with adequate clearance for airflow.
