Hi,
Has there been a firmware update to the Blue Smart IP67 12A charger or the VictronConnect app so I can set the aqbsorb time to less than an hour? Not being able to set this to less than an hour does not make any sense unless this was a coding error. I am in the process of commissioning some SimpliPhi 24VDC 3.8 batteries and the absorb is to be set to 6 minutes. The minimum I can seem to set this to is 1 hour.
Any workarounds for this on the SimpliPhi batteries?
Thanks,
Brian
Anyone have an answer?
I don't have this actual charger, I have the PSC IP43 model. I can choose the absorption time as low as one minute from within the VictronConnect App on my handheld mobile telephone.
If I use the demo mode and select your model of charger, this absorption time is also available.
I found the demo mode ... I'll see if it charges properly. Really great help and very appreciated!!!
I posted a similar question a while ago.

Victron's reply was essentially "Live with it". Our 300Ah 4 cell LiFePO4 battery is full at 14.1V without the unnecessary forced added 1 hour absorption.
I am still eagerly waiting for a fix.
