The Victron Energy Blue Smart IP67 Charger (BPC121715106) is a professional-grade 12-volt, 17-amp waterproof battery charger with built-in Bluetooth connectivity. Designed for demanding environments, it delivers up to 17 amps of DC charging power from a standard 120V AC NEMA 5-15 input, making it an ideal solution for marine, RV, automotive, and off-grid applications.
Bluetooth Smart Monitoring: Built-in Bluetooth allows you to wirelessly monitor voltage and current, adjust settings, and push firmware updates directly from your smartphone, tablet, or laptop using the free VictronConnect app. No more manually checking your battery — everything is visible at a glance.
7-Step Adaptive Charging Algorithm: A microprocessor-controlled adaptive charging system automatically optimizes the charge cycle based on how the battery is being used. The algorithm maximizes battery health, performance, and service life across all charge stages — including bulk, absorption, float, and storage.
Deeply Discharged Battery Recovery: Unlike many chargers, the Blue Smart IP67 will attempt to recover deeply discharged or "dead" batteries by applying a low-current pulse. Once sufficient terminal voltage is detected, the charger transitions automatically to normal charging.
IP67 Waterproof Construction: Rated IP67, the charger is completely encapsulated — electronics are molded in resin inside a rugged cast aluminum housing, making it waterproof, shockproof, ignition-protected, and resistant to water, oil, dirt, and chemicals. It is safe for use in marine bilges, engine bays, and other harsh environments.
Industry-Leading Efficiency: With 92% efficiency or better, this charger produces significantly less waste heat than conventional chargers. Once the battery reaches full charge, power consumption drops to under one watt — five to ten times below the industry standard.
