Description

The Victron Lithium Battery Smart 12,8V 200Ah is the highest-capacity 12 V cell in the Smart range, intended for large marine house banks where usable energy, weight saving and long cycle life are priorities. An LFP battery does not need to be returned to full charge after each cycle and tolerates being left partially charged, which suits cruising yachts and liveaboards where a lead-acid bank would sulfate during periods of deficit running.

Integrated Bluetooth reports cell voltages, temperature and alarm status to the VictronConnect app, so cell imbalance or a developing fault can be identified early. The battery stores 2560 Wh and delivers up to 400 A continuous, with low internal resistance and 92% round-trip efficiency that reduce charging losses compared with lead-acid.

It has integrated cell balancing and monitoring but is not a drop-in battery: it requires an external Battery Management System (for example a VE.Bus BMS, smallBMS or Lynx Smart BMS) for low-voltage, high-voltage and temperature protection. Cells can be wired in series, parallel or series/parallel to build 12 V, 24 V or 48 V banks.

Does this battery need a separate Battery Management System?
Yes. The Lithium Battery Smart has integrated cell balancing and monitoring, but it must be connected to an external Victron BMS (such as a VE.Bus BMS, smallBMS or Lynx Smart BMS), which disconnects the load on low cell voltage, stops charging on high cell voltage, and protects against out-of-range temperatures.
What does the Bluetooth do?
Bluetooth lets you monitor individual cell voltages, temperature and alarm status in the VictronConnect app. The app can show key data on the device list without connecting to the battery, which helps localise issues such as cell imbalance.
Can I connect several batteries together?
Yes. The cells can be connected in series, parallel and series/parallel to build 12 V, 24 V or 48 V banks. Up to 20 batteries can be used in one system. Victron recommends adding a battery balancer when batteries are connected in series.
What is the recommended charge voltage?
Victron recommends 14,2 V (within an allowable range of 14 V to 14,4 V), with a float voltage of 13,5 V. The recommended charge current for this 200 Ah battery is 100 A or less, up to a maximum of 400 A.
How is it connected into the system?
Power connections use M8 threaded inserts. The BMS connection is made with a male and female cable fitted with an M8 circular connector, 50 cm long.
