It's a simple sealed lead acid battery. So from my experience you could safely use settings from other SLA batteries.

Suggestion:

Absorption voltage: 14.6V
Float voltage: 13.8V
Storage voltage: 13.2V

Depending on which battery you want to charge, 30A could be a bit too much. For example if you charge from your leisure battery to the starter battery. Other way around it is ok.

Hi @idunne,

you should create your own preset with settings recommended by your battery manufacturer. Look into the data sheet of your leisure sealed lead acid batteries and use the values from there.
