Hello,
Apologies if this has already been answered, but I'm getting a bit confused by all the info I found so far.
I have just purchased a Victron Lithium SuperPack 12v 200ah battery, which will be installed in my boat in June 2024. It has been recommended that I charge the battery to 13.4v in the meantime to allow for possible low voltage when it was shipped or in the warehouse.
I purchased a Victron 12v Blue smart charger so I can do the first charge before the installation and I wanted to check if I should use the standard Li-ion charge profile or if the (advanced menu) Smart Lithium (LiFePo4) profile would be better?
The only difference I can see in the profiles is that the Float voltage is enabled (13.50V) for the Smart Lithium (LiFePo4) profile.
Also, just to check, because my Lithium Superpack battery has a built in BMS it is safe to charge this way. As opposed to the Lithium Smart battery, as it has no BMS to protect itself. Is this correct?
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thank you.
