This is the Victron Smart IP43 Charger for 24 V batteries, with a nominal charge current of 25 A and three fully rated charge outputs. It uses an adaptive 6-stage charge algorithm and talks over VE.Direct and Bluetooth. The enclosure is rated IP43 for the electronic components. AC input is accepted from 85 to 250 VAC, and a battery temperature sensor is optional, using Smart Battery Sense.
Our take
Three fully rated charge outputs on a 24 V charger with a 25 A nominal current lets one unit look after more than one battery. The temperature sensor is an optional extra, and the IP43 rating is stated for the electronic components.
From our buying guide
NMMA says charging sources must meet the charging profile the battery maker recommends. A charger's presets are its own maker's, not the battery's, so set it from the battery maker's figures.
Check before you buy:
- It can follow your battery's profile, since not every charger can follow a lithium maker's.
- Its output suits your bank. ProMariner recommends about 10 percent of the batteries' total amp-hour capacity, with one charger output for each battery.
- It suits how you'll use it, since ProMariner says its waterproof chargers are for batteries not in use while charging.
