Victron Energy PIN241801300 Phoenix Inverter 24/800 230V VE.Direct AU/NZ
800VA Pure Sine Wave at 24V VE.Direct, Screw Terminals, AU/NZ Ready.
Product Overview
The Victron Energy Phoenix Inverter 24/800 230V VE.Direct AU/NZ (PIN241801300) is a 24V pure sine wave inverter delivering 800VA of continuous 230V AC output, fitted with an Australian and New Zealand standard plug. Built on the proven full bridge plus toroidal transformer topology, it powers domestic 230V equipment laptops, televisions, LED and halogen lighting, small appliances, and power tools from a 24V leisure or automotive battery bank. DC connection is via standard screw terminals requiring no special tools, simplifying installation in tight or hard-to-reach locations.
There is no built-in Bluetooth on this model. Monitoring and configuration are via the VE.Direct port connect to a computer using the VE.Direct to USB interface cable, or wirelessly to any iOS or Android device or MacBook using the optional VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle. Both accessories are sold separately. No automatic transfer switch is included; the Victron Filax ATS is recommended for seamless AC source switchover in under 20 milliseconds.

Features & Benefits
- 800VA at 24V — common loads covered — At 800VA, the Phoenix 24/800 handles the most common lightweight portable and leisure loads from a 24V battery bank — laptops, device chargers, LED and halogen lighting, small televisions, and kitchen appliances within the output rating. Pure sine wave output is compatible with all sensitive electronics, variable-speed appliances, and AC motor loads.
- Screw Terminal DC Connection — no special tools — The DC battery connection uses standard screw terminals, eliminating the need for specialist cable lugs, crimping tools, or proprietary connectors. Simplifies installation in tight spaces, lockers, and hard-to-reach locations — and makes field servicing and reconnection straightforward.
- Full Bridge + Toroidal Transformer — Proven Reliability — The toroidal transformer topology delivers high surge capability for starting inrush-demanding loads and stable, clean sine wave output. Short circuit proof and protected against overheating from overload or high ambient temperature. A proven platform deployed in professional marine, caravan, vehicle, and off-grid installations worldwide.
-
VE.Direct Port — Configurable via Cable or Optional Dongle — All inverter parameters are accessible via the VE.Direct port. Both accessories are sold separately:
- VE.Direct to USB Interface Cable — connects to a computer for configuration and monitoring via VictronConnect.
- VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart Dongle — adds wireless access from any iOS or Android smartphone, tablet, or MacBook.
- ECO Mode — Standby Power Reduction — Shuts the inverter down when load drops below 15W and checks for demand every 2.5 seconds (adjustable). Resumes full operation when load exceeds the threshold. Reduces standby consumption in 24V off-grid and battery-backed systems where standby draw affects battery autonomy.
- High Start-Up Power — The toroidal transformer's surge capability handles the inrush current of LED lamp converters, halogen transformers, power tools, and other high-inrush loads without tripping.
- Remote On/Off — A remote switch or battery positive signal connects to the two-pole connector for external inverter control from a panel, switch, or relay.
- AU/NZ Standard Plug — Direct connection to any standard Australian or New Zealand 10A GPO — no adapter required.
- No Built-In Transfer Switch — For installations requiring seamless transfer to a generator or shore power source, the Victron Filax ATS (less than 20ms switchover) is recommended. For AC input battery charging, a Victron MultiPlus is the more complete solution.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this inverter have built-in Bluetooth?
No — there is no built-in Bluetooth on this model. Wireless access requires the optional VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle (sold separately). Computer-based access uses the VE.Direct to USB interface cable (also sold separately). For built-in Bluetooth, consider the Phoenix Smart 24/1600 (PIN242161000).
Why does this inverter use screw terminals instead of bolts?
The screw terminal DC connection is designed for ease of installation — no crimping tools, cable lugs, or specialist equipment are required. This suits installations in tight spaces, DIY setups, and field servicing where simplicity and accessibility matter.
What loads can an 800VA inverter power at 24V?
At 800VA, this inverter powers laptops, device chargers, LED and halogen lighting, small televisions, and other electronics within its rating. High-draw appliances including electric kettles (1,800W+) and air conditioners exceed the 800VA output limit. Always verify individual appliance wattage before connecting.
Does this inverter include a transfer switch for switching to generator or shore power?
No. The Victron Filax ATS (less than 20ms switchover) is recommended for installations requiring seamless transfer to an external AC source. For combined inversion and AC input battery charging, a Victron MultiPlus is the more comprehensive solution.
How does the 24/800 compare to the 24/1200 in the Phoenix range?
Both use the same VE.Direct platform with the same features. The 24/800 delivers 800VA for lighter loads; the 24/1200 (PIN242121300) delivers 1,200VA for higher simultaneous load requirements. Choose based on your expected maximum continuous load — slightly oversizing is preferable to running at or near the rated limit continuously.
