Key Features:
- Wireless Voltage and Temperature Sensing: Measures battery voltage and temperature to optimize charging efficiency and prolong battery life.
- Improved Charging Efficiency: By measuring voltage at the battery bank terminals, it avoids errors due to voltage loss from cable resistance, ensuring the correct charge voltage.
- Temperature-Based Charging Adjustments: For lead batteries, adjusts charge voltages based on temperature: increases for cold batteries and decreases for hot batteries. For lithium batteries, disables charging when temperatures are too low to prevent permanent cell damage.
- Wireless Connectivity: Utilizes the VE.Smart Network, a wireless technology based on Bluetooth Smart, allowing simultaneous use with one or more Victron MPPT Solar Chargers connected to the same 12V, 24V, or 48V battery bank.
- Easy Installation: Connects via two eyelets to battery terminals and attaches directly to the battery body using a self-adhesive strip.
