The Victron Phoenix Inverter 12/250 230V VE.Direct delivers reliable and efficient pure sine wave power for your caravan, boat, or off-grid setup. Compact yet powerful, it provides 250VA continuous output — enough to run sensitive electronics and small appliances safely. Built on Victron’s proven inverter platform, this model combines high-quality engineering with advanced configurability and connectivity through the VE.Direct communication port.
⭐ ESSENTIAL BENEFITS
• Pure sine wave output – ensures stable power delivery, safe for sensitive electronics and appliances.
• VE.Direct communication port – enables connection to computers (via VE.Direct to USB cable) or smartphones/tablets (via VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle).
• Fully configurable settings – fine-tune performance including voltage cut-offs, alarm levels, ECO mode, and frequency output.
• Proven Victron reliability – robust full-bridge toroidal transformer design offers exceptional durability, short circuit protection, and thermal safeguards.
• High start-up power – handles demanding loads such as LED power converters, halogen lamps, or small power tools.
• ECO mode for energy savings – automatically switches to standby when load drops below a preset level, conserving battery power.
• Remote on/off control – can be activated via switch or connected contact for easy system integration.
• Seamless transfer option – compatible with the Victron Filax Automatic Transfer Switch or the Victron MultiPlus inverter/charger for automatic AC source switching.
⚙️ HOW IT WORKS / FUNCTIONALITY
The Phoenix Inverter converts 12V DC battery power into 230V AC, providing a clean sine wave output identical to household mains power. Through VE.Direct, users can configure system parameters, monitor input/output voltage, and track load performance via a computer or mobile device. The integrated ECO mode reduces idle consumption by putting the inverter into standby when loads fall below a set threshold — ideal for maximising efficiency in mobile and off-grid setups.
🔌 COMPATIBILITY
• Works with 12V battery systems.
• Ideal for caravans, RVs, boats, 4WDs, and small off-grid systems.
• Compatible with VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle and VictronConnect App.
• Integrates with Filax Automatic Transfer Switch or MultiPlus inverter/charger for seamless power transfer.
🧰 INSTALLATION DIFFICULTY
🟡 Moderate (3/5) – suitable for intermediate installers or DIYers with 12V system experience. Professional installation recommended for integrated setups with transfer switches.
🔍 FEATURES
• VE.Direct communication port – connect via USB or Bluetooth Smart dongle.
