BFL 13, Thanks for the good analysis related to the PD charger and SOC matters, makes perfect sense...As to the charging of ‘drop-in’ type LiFePO4’s, other than below freezing temps charging, they are very similar to FLA in most other regards, the main difference is that there’s no need for a float mode, and they occasionally need to be brought up to a FULL charge then held in bulk mode for a brief period to allow for proper BMS cell balancing...
The bulk of my learning curve has been surrounding the practical determination of SOC (due to the mostly flat voltage curve...), of which I believe you’ve posited a workable solution - as time permits I’ll gladly give this a solid try ...
