Victron Lifepo4 never goes to float. Is this a problem?

My system is all Victeon. CerboGX, Victron Smart LiFePO4 200Ah, Multiplus, Lynx Smart BMS MPPTs etc and everything is controlled by DVCC so as far as I’m aware it should be self managing, but it just sits in Absorbtion from the Multiplus output once the battery is full.

Is this fine?

I’m worried that it will damage the battery to be constantly in Absorbtion for months on end.

Yes, that's how it works. Just ignore that and look at the voltage rather than the charge mode. It is voltage controlled by your GX device.

Ah, ok. I didn’t realise that it could change voltage within the mode.

Thanks!
