Bluetooth Smart enabled Any Bluetooth enabled smart phone, tablet or other device can be used to monitor, to change settings and to update the charger when new software features become available. Fully programmable - Battery charge algorithm (configurable) or fixed output. - Smart alternator compatibility: engine running detection mechanism. Adaptive 3-stage charge algorithm: bulk – absorption – float • For lead acid batteries it is important that during shallow discharges the absorption time is kept short in order to prevent overcharging of the battery. After a deep discharge the absorption time is automatically increased to make sure that the battery is completely recharged. • For lithium batteries absorption time is fixed, default 2 hours. •

VE.Direct communication port The VE.Direct port can be connected to: • A computer (VE.Direct to USB interface cable needed) • Apple and Android smartphones, tablets, MacBook’s and other devices (VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle needed) Fully configurable: • Low battery voltage alarm trip and reset levels • Low battery voltage cut-off and restart levels • Dynamic cut-off: load dependent cut-off level • Output voltage 210 - 245V • Frequency 50 Hz or 60 Hz

Bluetooth Smart 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. Fully programmable charge algorithm Absorption, Float and Storage voltages as well as the Recondition setting and the temperature compensation value can be programmed with the Bluetooth app. After enabling the Expert mode, the app allows changing practically all parameters and time limits used by the charge algorithm. 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 for 24 hours. In the storage mode float voltage is reduced to 2,2 V/cell (13,2 V for a 12 V battery) to minimize gassing and corrosion of the positive plates.

The BM-2 is designed to monitor performance of 12 volt lead acid battery systems with capacities of up to 999 Amp hours. It is supplied complete with a precision 200 AMP shunt and a prefabricated cable assembly to enable simple DIY installation. The unit continuously monitors voltage, current (charge or discharge), number of amp/hours (charge or discharge), the batteries state of charge and the time to charge or discharge. This information leads to more efficient use of the battery, which can enhance battery life and reduce the risk of failure.
The minimum information required to monitor the state of charge of a battery is the terminal voltage and the charge/discharge current **.  The BM2  measures both these parameters and computes the state of charge using a complex, well proven, algorithm.
