Inverter Chargers

Inverter chargers—such as the widely used Victron Energy MultiPlus range—combine a pure sine wave inverter, mains battery charger and automatic transfer switch in one device. This allows you to run 230V appliances from your leisure battery while also charging your battery when connected to mains hook up or a generator.

This collection includes a wide range of models to suit different setups, from compact units like 500VA and 800VA systems for smaller builds, through to powerful 3000VA and 5000VA inverter chargers for full off-grid camper van installations. These higher-capacity systems are capable of running demanding appliances such as kettles, power tools and induction hobs, making them ideal for long-term travel and full-time van life.

A key feature of Victron inverter chargers is PowerAssist technology, which helps prevent overload when connected to limited shore power. The system automatically supplements incoming mains power with energy from your battery when demand exceeds supply, ensuring stable performance without tripping breakers. This makes them particularly useful on campsites with restricted hook up amperage.

Many inverter chargers also include adaptive multi-stage charging, automatically adjusting to different battery types including lithium (LiFePO4), AGM and lead-acid. This ensures efficient charging while protecting battery health and extending lifespan—an essential feature for modern camper van electrical systems.
