The high-output step up from the MultiPlus 12/1600. The Victron MultiPlus C 12/2000/80-30 combines a 2000VA pure sine wave inverter, 80A battery charger, and high-speed AC transfer switch in a compact enclosure — more power, faster charging, and the same seamless shore/battery switching.

Benefits:

• 2000VA pure sine wave inverter — runs sensitive electronics, appliances and power tools

• 80A battery charger — faster charge than the 12/1600

• AC transfer in under 20ms — true UPS function, computers stay running

• PowerAssist boosts limited shore or generator supply with battery power

• PowerControl limits input draw to protect weak AC sources

• Up to 6 units in parallel for expanded output

• Remote monitoring via Cerbo GX and free VRM portal

Features:

The MultiPlus C 12/2000/80-30 is the same concept as the MultiPlus 12/1600 but with 25% more inverter output and an 80A charger — better suited to larger van builds running induction cookers, air conditioning or heavy power tools. In the event of shore power loss, the integrated inverter takes over in under 20ms — fast enough that computers, modems and streaming devices continue without interruption. PowerAssist means a weak campsite 10A supply can still support momentary peaks by drawing from the battery. Configurable via VE.Bus with MK3-USB interface. Add a Cerbo GX for full system monitoring via Victron's free VRM portal. Must be installed by a qualified electrical installer. Download the datasheet below.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the MultiPlus 12/1600 and the MultiPlus C 12/2000?

The MultiPlus C 12/2000/80-30 delivers 2000VA of inverter output (vs 1600VA) and an 80A battery charger (vs 70A), making it better suited to builds running larger appliances like induction cookers, air conditioners, or high-draw power tools. Both units include the same PowerAssist, PowerControl, and under-20ms AC transfer features. For most everyday van builds, the MultiPlus 12/1600 is sufficient; the 2000 is the choice when you need that extra headroom.

Can the MultiPlus C 12/2000 power an induction cooker or air conditioner?

A single 2000VA MultiPlus can comfortably handle most portable induction cookers (typically 1200–2000W) when paired with a sufficiently sized lithium battery bank (300Ah or more recommended). For split-system air conditioning, you'd typically need the MultiPlus-II 3000VA or a parallel configuration of multiple units. Our team at 205 Archers Road, Auckland can advise on the right setup for your specific appliance load — see our installation service.

Does this need to be installed by a licensed electrician in New Zealand?

Yes — the MultiPlus C connects to 230V mains AC (shore power) and must be installed by a registered electrician in New Zealand and a licensed electrician to Australian Standards in Australia. Our Auckland workshop installs these as part of complete campervan power systems. Contact us via our inverter installation service.

People are asking

What’s the difference between the MultiPlus C and the standard MultiPlus?

The MultiPlus C (Compact) is physically smaller than the standard MultiPlus at the same VA rating — useful where space is tight. Performance, features and charging specs are equivalent. The standard MultiPlus 12/1600 replaces the older Compact range at the 1600VA level.

What does the 80-30 mean in the model name?

80 refers to the battery charger output in amps (80A). 30 refers to the AC transfer switch rating in amps (30A). The 12/2000 refers to 12V DC input and 2000VA inverter output.

Can it run solar and shore power simultaneously?

Yes — when paired with a GX device and MPPT controller, it prioritises solar energy for charging and only uses shore power as a backup to prevent deep discharge. Shore power is the safety net, not the primary source.

Does it need professional installation?

Yes — this unit involves 230V AC mains wiring and must be installed by a qualified electrical installer. Incorrect wiring is dangerous and may void the warranty.

How many units can run in parallel?

Up to 6 units can operate in parallel for higher power output, or be configured for three-phase operation. Each additional unit adds another 2000VA of inverter capacity.
