Victron 90AH AGM on BlueSmart IP22 12/15/3

Hi All,

Unlike my previous charger (a Mastervolt) this slick Victron charger does not give me an option to select battery type (other than Li). I have two Victron AGM 90AH batteries and want to know if I should charge them 'Normal' or 'High' (or other??)

On this forum I read AGM doesn't like voltages over 14.4, on other fora I read they should be charged @ 14.7 V. Sadly there are no manuals around for these batteries. (at least not on the Victron site)


I bought the Victron charger under the assumption it would be a better match, but now I am not so certain.


So any help would be appreciated.

The settings are very customizable using Victron Connect.

If you go to the gear on the top left scroll down and switch on advanced settings.

Then select the advanced battery settings, you can select a different preset. Or you can define your own, if you switch on expert mode you can even tweak the presets if you feel they are not quite right.

Sorry there are no screenshots, seem to have an issue uploading today.
