12v Appliances

Solar charge controller Specification Sheet A solar charger gathers energy from your solar panels, and stores it in your batteries. Using the latest, fastest technology, SmartSolar maximises this energy-harvest, driving it intelligently to achieve full charge in the shortest possible time. SmartSolar maintains battery health, extending its life. The SmartSolar charge controller will even recharge a severely depleted battery. It can operate with a battery voltage as low as 0 Volts, provided the cells are not permanently sulphated or otherwise damaged. Bluetooth Smart built-in The wireless solution to set-up, monitor, update and synchronise SmartSolar Charge Controllers. VE.Direct For a wired data connection to a Color Control GX, other GX products, PC or other devices Ultra-fast Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) Especially in case of a clouded sky, when light intensity is changing continuously, an ultra-fast MPPT controller will improve energy harvest by up to 30% compared to PWM charge controllers and by up to 10% compared to slower MPPT controllers. Internal temperature sensor Compensates absorption and float charge voltage for temperature. Optional external battery voltage and temperature sensing via Bluetooth A Smart Battery Sense or a BMV-712 Smart Battery Monitor can be used to communicate battery voltage and temperature to one or more SmartSolar Charge Controllers. Fully discharged battery recovery function Will initiate charging even if the battery has been discharged to zero volts. Will reconnect to a fully discharged Li-ion battery with integrated disconnect function. Models: 12/24/48 Volt SKU:SCC110030210 Learn More

Victron BMV-712: With Bluetooth built-in, the BMV Smart is ready for the Internet of Things (IoT) era. With Bluetooth being implemented in most other Victron Energy products, wireless communication between products will simplify system installation and enhance performance. Download the Victron Bluetooth app: Use a smartphone or other Bluetooth enabled device to customize settings, monitor all important data on single screen, view historical data, and to update the software when new features become available. Easy to install- All electrical connections are to the quick connect PCB on the current shunt. The shunt connects to the monitor with a standard RJ12 telephone cable. Included: RJ 12 cable (10 m) and battery cable with fuse (2 m);no other components needed. Also included are a separate front bezel for a square or round display appearance, a securing ring for rear mounting and screws for front mounting. Midpoint voltage monitoring- One bad cell or one bad battery can destroy a large, expensive battery bank. When batteries are connected in series, a timely warning can be generated by measuring the midpoint voltage. Please see the BMV manual, section 5.2, for more information. We recommend our Battery Balancer (BMS012201000) to maximize service life of series-connected lead-acid batteries. Very low current draw from the battery- Current consumption: 0,7Ah per month (1mA) @12V and 0,6Ah per month (0,8mA) @ 24V. Especially Li-ion batteries have virtually no capacity left when discharged until low voltage shutdown. After shutdown due to low cell voltage, the capacity reserve of a Li-ion battery is approximately 1Ah per 100Ah battery capacity. The battery will be damaged if the remaining capacity reserve is drawn from the battery. A residual current of 10mA for example may damage a 200Ah battery if the system is left in discharged state during more than 8 days. Bi-stable alarm relay- Prevents increased current draw in case of an alarm. Other features: Battery voltage, current, power, ampere-hours consumed and state of charge Remaining time at the current rate of discharge Programmable visual and audible alarm Programmable relay, to turn off non critical loads or to run a generator when needed 500 Amp quick connect shunt and connection kit Shunt selection capability up to 10.000 Amps VE.Direct communication port Stores a wide range of historical events, which can be used to evaluate usage patterns and battery health Wide input voltage range: 6,5 – 70V High current measurement resolution: 10 mA (0,01A) Additional input to measure voltage (of a second battery), temperature or midpoint voltage, and corresponding alarm and relay settings Learn More

Victron Blue Smart Bluetooth 12-volt 30-amp three output battery charger with IP22 rating suitable for AGM, Gel and Lithium Ion battery charging (AU/NZ model). Bluetooth Enabled - The Blue Smart IP22 Charger is the wireless solution to monitor voltage and current, to change settings and to update the charger when new features become available. High Efficiency - With up to 94% efficiency, these chargers generate up to four times less heat when compared to the industry standard. And once the battery is fully charged, power consumption reduces to 0,5 Watt, some five to ten times better than the industry standard Adaptive 6-stage charge algorithm: test - bulk – absorption - recondition – float – storage. The Blue Smart Charger features a microprocessor controlled ‘adaptive’ battery management. The adaptive feature will automatically optimize the charging process relative to the way the battery is being used. Storage Mode - less maintenance and aging when the battery is not in use. The storage mode kicks in whenever the battery has not been subjected to discharge during 24 hours. In the storage mode, float voltage is reduced to 2,2V/cell (13,2V for a 12V battery) to minimize gassing and corrosion of the positive plates. Once a week the voltage is raised back to the absorption level to ‘equalize’ the battery. This feature prevents stratification of the electrolyte and sulfation, a major cause of early battery failure. Li-ion (LiFePO₄) batteries - LiFePO₄ batteries are charged with a simple bulk – absorption – float algorithm. NIGHT and LOW setting - When in NIGHT or LOW mode, the output current is reduced to max. 25% of the nominal output and the charger will be totally noiseless. The NIGHT mode automatically ends after 8 hours. The LOW mode can be ended manually. Protected against overheating - Output current will reduce as temperature increases up to 50°C, but the Blue Smart Charger will not fail. 11 LEDs for status indication - Charge algorithm: TEST / BULK / ABSORPTION / RECONDITION / FLOAT / STORAGE / READY.
