DC-DC Charger | Victron | Orion XS 1400 DC-DC Battery Charger
Product Details
The Victron Orion XS 1400 is a dual-voltage non-isolated DC-DC battery charger that operates across both 12V and 24V DC systems — making it the most versatile charger in the Orion XS range. With a 9–35V DC input range and up to 50A charge current (1400W at 28V nominal), it suits caravans, 4WDs, and marine vessels running either 12V or 24V battery banks. Supplied by Revolution Power, QLD's dedicated Victron Energy reseller, this unit is the go-to choice where high output power or dual-voltage flexibility is required.
Key Features
- 4-Stage Adaptive Charging — Bulk, absorption, float, and storage phases extend battery life and suit all lead-acid and lithium chemistries.
- Dual-Voltage Input (9–35V DC) — Works with both 12V and 24V source systems — charge a 12V or 24V battery bank from either system voltage.
- Built-in Bluetooth — Monitor and configure wirelessly using the free VictronConnect app on iOS or Android.
- Smart Alternator Compatible — Works with modern variable-voltage alternators found in Euro 5/6 vehicles without triggering fault codes.
- Remote On/Off Terminal — Integrate with a battery management system or control switch for automated operation.
- Parallelable — Run multiple units in parallel to scale output current for larger battery banks.

Ideal For
4WD & Off-Road: The Orion XS 1400 is built for demanding 4WD dual-battery setups where a single 12/12-50A unit isn't enough. Running at up to 1400W on a 24V system, it delivers serious charging capacity from a vehicle alternator — with smart alternator compatibility ensuring no ECU fault codes. Configure it once via VictronConnect and it handles both 12V and 24V battery banks automatically.
Caravan & Motorhome: The 1400 is the right choice for motorhome builders running 24V house battery systems. Where the 12-12 50A is limited to 12V source-to-12V output, the Orion XS 1400 can charge a 24V battery bank from a 24V alternator at full 1400W — enough to put serious amps back into a large lithium or AGM house bank during a day's drive.
Marine: On vessels running 24V DC bus systems, the Orion XS 1400 handles high-capacity service battery charging from a 24V engine alternator. The sealed IP65 design handles the vibration and humidity of marine environments, and the 9–35V input covers both 12V and 24V starter systems on different vessels.
System Integration
The Orion XS 1400 integrates with the VictronConnect app (iOS and Android) via built-in Bluetooth for real-time monitoring, charge profile configuration, and remote on/off control. Pair with a SmartShunt or BMV-712 battery monitor for comprehensive system visibility. Compatible with Victron GX devices (via VE.Smart networking) for integration into a full Victron Energy system. Installation requires appropriate DC fusing and cabling — consult Victron's wiring guidelines or contact the Revolution Power team for a system design.
