The Victron Phoenix Inverter Smart is a heavy-duty pure sine wave inverter with Bluetooth built in. It runs big loads off your battery bank: air conditioners, microwaves, coffee machines, power tools and whole-of-van or whole-of-boat AC circuits. It's built for serious caravan, marine, truck, mining and off-grid installs where power has to be clean and reliable.
Choosing a model
Choose your battery voltage, then the power rating. As a rule, use 12V up to about 3000VA. For anything bigger, 24V or 48V keeps cable sizes and currents sensible. The Smart range is hard-wired (230V screw terminals), not plug-in, so it needs installing by a licensed electrician. Want plug-in sockets? See the Phoenix Inverter VE.Direct (250–1600VA, AU outlet).
Key features
- Bluetooth and VictronConnect: monitor output, adjust settings and update firmware from your phone.
- Pure sine wave with very high peak power (up to 2× rating) for motor and compressor starts.
- High efficiency, low idle draw: up to 96% efficient, with ECO mode dropping standby consumption to as little as 0.6W.
- Battery Life feature: dynamic cut-off adjusts the low-battery shutdown point to the load, protecting your batteries.
- VE.Direct port for Cerbo GX / VRM remote monitoring, plus remote on/off.
- Protected against short circuit, overload, overheating and battery voltage high/low.
