Build more, learn more.
Checking with my consumer electronics engineer buddy. IIRC he said they terminate charging, not hold at a voltage. I'll edit this post when I hear back.I'm ok with my Lithium battery being constantly boosted at a lower voltage (14.0 max), because if you think about it, I believe that's how lithium batteries are charged in devices like your phone, computer etc. for example, it just hits 100% and stays there until you unplug it.
EDIT: His company does CC/CV until current tapers to a set value, then terminates charging altogether. Then periodically checking on state of charge and reactivating charging as needed.
He can’t speak for all companies but believes the vast majority follow the same procedures.
This makes sense to me as it’s exactly what I’d like the Rover to do and what all the research and guidance states for LFP.
