Blue Smart IP65 Charger
Charger The Blue Smart IP65 Charger is the new professional battery charger with built-in bluetooth. The Blue Smart IP65 Charger can be used on devices in your workshop and on motor vehicles, such as (classic) cars; motorbikes; boats and camper-vans.
New: IP65 12/5 replaced by smaller equivalent model: IP65s 12/5. Models: 12V 4/5/7/10/15A, 24V 5/8A
The battery is charged, smartly... to perfect condition The seven-step charging algorithm gets the best out of your battery. The charger gives the battery the power it needs, maintains its health, ensures better performance... and a longer life.
Recovery of deeply-discharged 'dead' batteries Unlike other brands, the Blue Smart IP65 Charger will attempt to recharge a deeply-discharged battery by force-feeding it with a low current. Normal charging will then be resumed as soon as there is sufficient voltage across the battery terminals.
Ultra high efficiency “green” battery charger With up to 95% 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.
Durable, safe and silent:
- Low thermal stress on the electronic components.
- Protection against ingress of dust, water and chemicals.
- Protection against overheating, the output current will reduce as temperature increases up to 60C, but the charger will not fail.
- The chargers are totally silent, no cooling fan or any other moving parts.

Reconditioning A lead-acid battery that has been insufficiently charged or has been
left discharged during days or weeks will deteriorate due to sulfation. If caught in time, sulfation can sometimes be partially reversed
by charging the battery with low current up to a higher voltage.
Recovery function for fully
discharged batteries Most reverse polarity protected chargers will not
recognize, and therefore not recharge a battery which has been
discharged to zero or nearly zero Volts. The Blue Smart Charger
however will attempt to recharge a fully discharged battery with
low current and resume normal charging once sufficient voltage
has developed across the battery terminals.
Storage mode: less corrosion of the positive plates Even the lower float charge voltage that follows the absorption
period will cause grid corrosion. It is therefore essential to reduce
the charge voltage even further when the battery remains connected to the charger during more than 48 hours.
Temperature compensated charging The optimal charge voltage of a lead-acid battery varies inversely
with temperature. The Blue Smart IP65 Charger measures ambient
temperature during the test phase and compensates for temperature during the charge process. The temperature is measured again
when the charger is in low current mode during float or storage.
Special settings for a cold or hot environment are therefore not
needed..
Li-ion battery mode The Blue Smart Charge
r uses a specific charging algorithm for
Li-ion (LiFePO₄) batteries, with automatic Li-ion under voltage
protection reset.
