Converter/Charger Questions.
I have a one year old rig and thinking of replacing my WCO converter, or at least have a spare. Last season the stock unit quit charging for a day and started working again the next day. So confiden...

Charging to 100% is not desirable for Li, if you wish to have maximum cycle life. Neither is float charging.
This is part of the reason "lithium" converters do not work well with LFP batteries. Many will float at 13.6 to 14.6 volts and reduce the life.
