Orion-tr 12-12/18 delivering 26 Amps

Hi there fellow Victron enthousiasts!

I'm running a orion-tr 12-12/18 for charging my LiFePo4 pack in my campervan. I dialed it to 14.6V for LiFePo4. Now when it kicks in, my BMS reads 26 Amps of charging. Is this normal? I thought it was maxed out at 18. I've got a 90 Amp alternator, so I don't think I'll run into trouble there. But am a bit worried about the orion itself.

Any help would be appreciated as i'm heading of to a big roadtrip the day after tomorrow!

Cheers!

Why would you think the charger was maxed out at 18 amps? Did you read the manual?
