Review: Excellent. Much better than direct from alternator - I was surprised at how small this unit was compared to my Solar MPPT 100/50 unit (see photo). There are no heatsink fans on the back so I was worried that it would get hot, but it doesn’t. As usual, the VictronConnect app is where it’s at and it’s great to be able to see Solar and Alternator charging from the same place. Really excellent system. Previous to this I was just charging the leisure batteries (4 x 100Ah) from the alternator when solar wasn’t cutting it over winter, but it took forever to charge to 100% and never reached Absorption voltage. This however is a night and day difference in terms of charging in the way it controls the voltage and current when charging. True bulk, absorption, float and storage states means it charges the batteries quickly. Easily three times quicker than using the alternator alone - depending on state of charge. The entire Victron system is highly recommended. A+ Review: Great B2B charger. - Fitted to a narrow boat this now takes power from the alternator/starter battery only when the engine is running and the voltages are high enough (values can be set). It then helps charge a large lifepo4 battery at set amperage values ensuring the alternator doesn't over heat from constant charging and protection from a sudden end charging spike (lifepo4 will take a constant voltage/amperage until full then stop charging whereas lead acid voltages taper off as they become charged). It "talks" to the victron mppt and inverter via a Bluetooth network (inbuilt) and keeps the charging values inline with the battery requirements and solar feed. Gets luke warm instead of hot like the older units. Brilliant bit of kit as the engine bay is now an isolated unit from the leisure system. ## Features - THE ULTIMATE BATTERY-TO-BATTERY CHARGER: The Orion XS, engineered from the ground up, redefines DC-DC battery charging. Ideal for dual battery systems charged by (intelligent) alternators. It not only ensures top-tier performance but also guarantees the safety of your system. - UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE: With 98.5% efficiency, the Orion XS provides a stable voltage and a continuous rated output of 700W, even in 40 °C. Higher efficiency also means less heat and its compact and robust IP65 water-resistant design ensures it will fit perfectly into any system. - CONFIGURABLE CHARGING: Precisely adjust the input and output currents using simple controls to match a wide range of (intelligent) alternators and batteries. It safeguards alternators from overloading and ensures the service battery is properly charged, thanks to our algorithms powered by decades of know-how. - CONNECTIVITY: The VictronConnect app makes it easy to configure your Orion XS and provides access to real-time data and a 30-day performance history. Instant readout allows for quick insights without waiting for pairing. Connect a communication center with premium display and unlock the endless possibilities of VRM - Remote management. - SAFE CHARGING: Packed with features to keep your gear safe and batteries charged, the Orion XS includes engine running detection and other SafetyShield+ features that work with any type of 12V alternator, including (Euro 5/6) intelligent alternators. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0CWYWQGBF | | Amperage | 50 | | Best Sellers Rank | 12,392 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) 107 in Car Battery Charging Units | | Brand | Victron Energy | | Brand Name | Victron Energy | | Colour | Blue | | Connector Types | Anderson SB | | Current Rating | 50 Amps | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 468 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 08719076058519 | | Input Voltage | 12 Volts (DC) | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 4D x 12.3W x 13.7H centimetres | | Item Weight | 1 Pounds | | Item weight | 1 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Victron Energy | | Manufacturer Part Number | ORI121217040 | | Model Number | ORI121217040 | | Number of Ports | 1 | | Output Voltage | 12 Volts (DC) | | Output voltage | 12 Volts (DC) | | Product Warranty | 2 Year Limited Warranty | | Product dimensions | 4D x 12.3W x 13.7H centimetres | | Specification Met | CE | | Specification met | CE | | Unit Count | 1.0 count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Victron Energy - **Colour:** Blue - **Item weight:** 0.35 Kilograms - **Output voltage:** 12 Volts (DC) - **Product dimensions:** 4D x 12.3W x 13.7H centimetres ## Images ![Orion XS Smart DC to DC Battery Charger 12/12 50A (700W) - IP65 Dust & Waterproof - Fully Configurable - Remote Management Possible - Advanced Battery Protection - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71y1yc1WovL.jpg) ![Orion XS Smart DC to DC Battery Charger 12/12 50A (700W) - IP65 Dust & Waterproof - Fully Configurable - Remote Management Possible - Advanced Battery Protection - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81vWDoo6IVL.jpg) ![Orion XS Smart DC to DC Battery Charger 12/12 50A (700W) - IP65 Dust & Waterproof - Fully Configurable - Remote Management Possible - Advanced Battery Protection - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Mi594YI0L.jpg) ![Orion XS Smart DC to DC Battery Charger 12/12 50A (700W) - IP65 Dust & Waterproof - Fully Configurable - Remote Management Possible - Advanced Battery Protection - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/718M5N0YH8L.jpg) ![Orion XS Smart DC to DC Battery Charger 12/12 50A (700W) - IP65 Dust & Waterproof - Fully Configurable - Remote Management Possible - Advanced Battery Protection - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71-hvuTW1rL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent.
