Victron Energy Battery Indicator Panel with M8 Eyelet Connector and 30A Fuse – BPC900110114

Product Overview

The Victron Energy Battery Indicator Panel (BPC900110114) is a compact battery monitoring accessory designed to provide a clear visual indication of the state of charge of a 12V lead-acid battery. Developed for use with Victron Blue Smart IP65 and Blue Power IP65 battery chargers, it allows users to check battery condition quickly without requiring a separate monitoring display or smartphone application.

Featuring an easy-to-read LED indicator, M8 battery eyelet connections and an integrated 30A ATO fuse, this panel is particularly useful for automotive, marine, caravan, motorhome and leisure battery installations.

LED Battery Status Monitoring

The battery indicator uses a simple colour-coded LED system to display the approximate state of charge of the connected battery.

A green light indicates that the battery is approximately 80–100% charged and does not currently require charging. An orange light indicates a charge level of approximately 60–80%, suggesting that charging may be beneficial. A red light indicates approximately 40–60% charge, meaning the battery requires charging. If no indicator light is illuminated, the battery is below approximately 40% charge and should be recharged promptly to help prevent sulphation.

For the most reliable reading, allow approximately 30 minutes after charging or using the battery for its voltage to stabilise before checking the indicator.

M8 Eyelet Battery Connections

The BPC900110114 is supplied with M8 ring terminals for permanent connection to compatible battery terminal studs. This allows the indicator to remain connected to the battery, providing convenient monitoring whenever required.

The 1.5-metre cable provides flexibility when positioning the indicator panel away from the battery. Its compact design allows it to be installed in a suitable panel location where the LED status display can be easily viewed.

Integrated Fuse Protection

An inline 30A ATO fuse is incorporated into the battery connection cable to provide circuit protection. The accessory has a maximum current rating of 30A and is designed for compatible 12V battery installations.

Applications and Usage

The Victron Battery Indicator Panel is suitable for monitoring 12V lead-acid batteries in cars, vans, boats, yachts, caravans, campervans, motorhomes and off-grid leisure power systems.

It is particularly useful where batteries are installed in enclosed compartments or locations that are not easily accessible. By mounting the indicator in a convenient position, users can check the approximate battery charge condition without needing to access the battery itself.

Technical Specifications

The BPC900110114 operates within a voltage range of 6–15V and is designed specifically for 12V lead-acid batteries, including flooded, GEL and AGM battery types. It is not suitable for lithium batteries or 24V battery systems.

The unit has a maximum current rating of 30A and a standby current consumption of approximately 0.9mA. The cable measures 1.5 metres in length and has a cross-sectional area of 3.3mm² (12 AWG).

The battery connection uses M8 eyelet terminals and includes an integrated 30A ATO fuse. The panel measures approximately 45 x 26 x 50mm, with a recommended mounting cut-out of approximately 39 x 22mm. Its IP65 protection rating provides protection against dust and water exposure.

The complete assembly weighs approximately 0.17kg.

Compatibility and Installation

This battery indicator panel is designed as an accessory for compatible Victron Blue Smart IP65 and Blue Power IP65 battery chargers. It is suitable for 12V flooded, GEL and AGM lead-acid batteries only.

The M8 eyelet terminals connect directly to compatible battery studs, while the indicator panel can be installed in a convenient mounting position. Ensure the battery polarity is correct and that the connections are secure before use.

Product Summary

The Victron Energy BPC900110114 Battery Indicator Panel provides a simple and convenient way to monitor the approximate state of charge of a 12V lead-acid battery. With colour-coded LED indication, permanent M8 eyelet connections, a 1.5-metre cable and integrated 30A fuse protection, it is a useful addition to automotive, marine and leisure battery installations.
