Everything you need to know about the product
The Victron Phoenix Inverter 12V 375VA (300W) converts 12V DC battery power into clean 230V AC, allowing you to run domestic appliances and equipment from leisure or automotive batteries. Whether you're off-grid, camping, or working remotely, this pure sinewave inverter delivers reliable, stable power suitable for sensitive electronics. The range covers models from 250VA through to 1200VA to suit a wide variety of power requirements.
The built-in VE.Direct port enables seamless communication with external devices for monitoring and full configuration. It can be connected to:
The Phoenix Inverter is fully configurable to suit your specific battery and load requirements:
Keep track of your system at a glance. The inverter provides real-time monitoring of input and output voltage, percentage load, and active alarms.
The full bridge plus toroidal transformer topology has a long track record of dependable performance. The inverter is short-circuit proof and fully protected against overheating — whether caused by overload or high ambient temperature — making it well suited to demanding conditions.
Many loads require a surge of power at start-up, including power converters for LED lamps, halogen lamps, and electric tools. The Phoenix Inverter delivers the high start-up power needed to handle these demands without issue.
When ECO mode is enabled, the inverter switches to standby when the connected load drops below a preset value (minimum load: 15W). In standby, the inverter briefly powers on at regular intervals — adjustable, default every 2.5 seconds — to check whether the load has increased. If the load exceeds the preset threshold, the inverter remains on, conserving battery energy when full power isn't required.
A remote on/off switch can be wired to the two-pole connector, or connected between battery positive and the left-hand contact of the connector, giving you convenient remote control of the inverter.
Onboard LEDs provide at-a-glance status information. Refer to the manual for a full description of each LED indication.
To transfer the load to another AC source, Victron recommends the Filax Automatic Transfer Switch. The Filax features a switchover time of less than 20 milliseconds, ensuring computers and other sensitive electronics continue operating without disruption.
The inverter is available with different output socket configurations to suit your setup. DC connections use screw terminals — no special tools required for installation.

Connects to computers via USB cable, or to smartphones, tablets and MacBooks via Bluetooth Smart dongle, for full remote monitoring and configuration.
Adjust battery alarm and cut-off voltages, dynamic cut-off, output voltage (210–245V), frequency (50/60 Hz), and ECO mode threshold to match your specific system.
Displays input and output voltage, percentage load, and active alarms for complete system visibility.
Full bridge plus toroidal transformer topology is short-circuit proof and protected against overheating from overload or high ambient temperature.
Handles the surge demand of LED and halogen lamp converters, electric tools, and other loads that require high inrush current at start-up.
Automatically enters standby when load drops below 15W, waking every 2.5 seconds (adjustable) to check for load resumption — reducing battery drain during idle periods.
Supports a wired remote switch via the two-pole connector for convenient inverter control from a distance.
Pairs with the Victron Filax Automatic Transfer Switch for switchover to another AC source in under 20 milliseconds.
Tool-free DC connections via screw terminals for straightforward, no-fuss installation.
A deep dive into our industry-leading technology and high-performance standards.
It can run domestic appliances requiring 230V AC up to 300W continuous, including LED and halogen lighting, small electric tools, and sensitive electronics. Its high start-up power capability handles surge loads from converters and motors.
You'll need a VE.Direct Bluetooth Smart dongle (sold separately) to connect to Apple or Android smartphones, tablets, and MacBooks. For a direct computer connection, a VE.Direct to USB interface cable is required.
ECO mode puts the inverter into low-power standby when the load drops below 15W, waking briefly every 2.5 seconds (adjustable) to check if the load has returned. It's ideal when loads are connected intermittently, as it significantly reduces battery draw during idle periods.
Yes. The Phoenix Inverter is short-circuit proof and protected against overheating caused by either overload or high ambient temperatures.
The inverter doesn't include a built-in transfer switch, but Victron recommends pairing it with the Filax Automatic Transfer Switch, which switches between sources in under 20 milliseconds — fast enough to avoid disrupting computers and electronics.
This model operates on a 12V DC battery. The Victron Phoenix Inverter range is also available in 24V and 48V variants to suit different battery bank configurations.
