Lifepo4 float setting?
I have not had to deal with a float setting so far with PWM controllers but I have a Victron 75/15 coming tomorrow and reading up on the settings,it is confusing especially the float setting..Some say...

Per BFL:
“So the time difference where amps are tapering with FLA vs LFP on solar is not so many minutes at typical RV low solar charging rates. That still leaves their charging efficiency differences though at say 5% faster for LFP”….
Please clarify, Since you did not end your post with ‘JMO’ (??), is the 5% figure you state an ‘opinion’, or are you offering this information from an independent source??…From actual ‘in the field experience, I find this suggested “5% faster” number to be overly conservative, which has an impact on recovery time as well…..JMO… And I would be remiss for not applauding your now seemingly keen interest in a battery type that (per the written record…) you’d ‘so actively’ attempted to dissuade folks away from in the past, but then again perhaps your views have since evolved - I donno??…If so, then please state your actual ownership experience with LFP batteries (i.e. the RV type)…
