DC-DC CHARGER FAQS
What vehicles is the Victron Orion XS 50A suitable for?
The Victron Orion XS is designed for versatility, making it compatible with both conventional and smart alternators. Conventional alternators provide a consistent output, which many chargers are designed to handle. However, newer vehicles have smart alternators that vary their output based on driving conditions and battery charge levels to improve fuel efficiency and reduce emissions. This variation can pose challenges for standard DC-DC chargers.
The Orion XS stands out by adapting to the fluctuating output of smart alternators, ensuring optimal charging performance regardless of the alternator type. This capability allows the charger to maximise efficiency and extend battery life by accurately adjusting the charge parameters to suit the real-time output of the alternator. Whether your vehicle has a newer, eco-friendly smart alternator or a traditional one, the Victron Orion XS 50A ensures consistent, efficient and safe battery charging.
