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...

I guess that is what makes it so confusing to this old hillbilly..Charging to 14.4 etc seems is just a surface charge because it quickly drops after taking it off the charger to 13.3/13.4 where it sits at 100% charge..So the purpose of all the settings above that number really don't makes sense to me...
All activity and power usage happens below the settled voltage for the most part...So why the higher numbers except to balance...
Seems a charge to say 13.5/13.6 would be enough and a float at around 12.8/12.9 would be around the 20% mark?
