The Victron Orion XS 1400 is a next-generation battery charger delivering up to 1400W / 100A of charging power — one of the most powerful DC-DC chargers available for dual battery systems. Engineered for modern vehicles with smart alternators (variable voltage regulators), the Orion XS ensures your auxiliary battery receives a proper multi-stage charge regardless of alternator output.
Fully configurable via the VictronConnect app over Bluetooth, the Orion XS supports AGM, gel, flooded, and lithium (LiFePO₄) battery chemistries, making it the ideal upgrade for 4WDs, caravans, camper trailers, and marine applications.

Versatile Applications
Whether you're upgrading a dual battery system in a 4WD, caravan, or boat, or building an off-grid power solution, the Orion XS 1400 adapts to a wide range of configurations:
- 12 V to 12 V (50 A) for standard auxiliary battery charging
- 12 V to 24 V (25 A) for 24 V battery banks
- 24 V to 12 V (50 A) for trucks and heavy vehicles
- 24 V to 24 V (50 A) for larger off-grid systems
Its ability to operate as a power supply with a fixed output voltage further extends its utility for powering sensitive equipment directly.
