Connect your Bender to Victron
Phaeton runs on your Victron system and adds your Bender CC612 / CC613 as a Victron EV charging station. It shows in VRM and charges the car from solar surplus.

What you get
- Your charger appears in VRM and on the Victron display with its charging power and status.
- Auto mode follows the solar production and household use your Victron system measures, not only the grid meter.
- Manual, Auto and Scheduled charging from Phaeton's own page on your Victron system.
Why not the charger's own solar mode?
A charger's own solar mode usually reads only the grid meter. With a Victron home battery, the battery takes the surplus first, so the meter shows little export and the charger keeps waiting. Phaeton reads production and use from the Victron system itself.
Before you buy
A Victron system running Venus OS. Installation guide
For the Bender CC612 / CC613:
Requires a controller with the modern Ebee/Bender/OMCCI Modbus map and a suitable energy meter. Ask the installer to verify the controller and interface; the brand name alone is insufficient.
This controller occurs in some Mennekes, Webasto and SMA products. It does not include every model from those brands, legacy maps or Webasto NEXT. Phase switching is unavailable.
