Any ideas for a good power supply for 24 volt lifepo batteries?

You can configure it via the Victron Connect app on your cellphone or tablet, using Bluetooth.

I did not see anything saying it could be put into "lithium" mode.

I only seen the charge profiles which all said 29.4 for 24 volt.

From the data sheet. Look at the far right where it says 28.4V for Li-ion

Look about an inch before that where it says "High:29.4"
Also, lifepo is not Li-ion.

Correct ...you use the Li-ion setting...not the 29.4 setting

And yes...LiFEPO4 is a form of LI-ion battery. That voltage setting of 28.4V is perfect for LiFePO4.

This is my last post helping you....obviously you can't listen and have some strange preconceived ideas that hamper you from learning things.
 
Here's a screenshot from the settings page for that charger in the app, with li-ion (really: lifepo4) preset:

I would probably set it to custom and run 28V absorption voltage and 26.4V float, for better battery longevity, like this:

I can only go by what the manual says and not what you WANT it to say.

Thank you. So in the app they let you choose what the highest and lowest will be? Pretty cool.
It is sad that there is not something on their website that says this.
Heck, I was not even able to find the link for the app either.

I agree, I had planned on not going higher than 90% or lower than 20%.

Thank you for this screenshot. :)

Is this any place on their website?
Because when I was looking at their chargers I did not see anything looking like this at all.
Just a data sheet or a UL listing to download.

LOL...I am reading directly off the manual.

I am done...you are hopeless.

Ok then if I am hopeless then why can't anyone else find what you claim to exist?
Right. I think you just like putting others down for not being as perfect as you think you are.
Bye.

You can disable float, but not storage.

The Victron manuals are not always great, even though they technically contain all the info you need.

Ok thanks. There is nothing on the data sheet that says this sadly.
And yes it probably is technically correct.
But there is not even a link on the charger page for the app.

Thanks.

It's in the app store on your cellphone if you have android/iphone.

Ok I found five apps there.
The first one looks like it does what you showed me.
It only ever works with one phone. So if I change phones then it won't work any longer according to Victron. So there is that.
EDIT: I might have this wrong, it MIGHT be only one phone at a time.
I have to do some more reading LOL. :)

Thanks for all of your help. :)
