Renogy shunt settings for LiFePo4

[Sugarkryptonite]

Hi guys

I’ve read some settings pages for the Victron shunt with many more settings, but I’m stuck with a Renogy for now.

I charge with solar AND alternator charging from my vehicle. My Victron MPPT absorption voltage is 14.2v. From what I understand, I set the “Full voltage” setting to 14.0v on the Renogy. Is this correct? Should I also be setting my DC to DC charger for an absorption voltage of 14.2 to match the Victron? I think I might have it at 14.4 for some reason

What about the “Zero V” setting?

I’m using LiTime 4 x 100Ah batteries in parallel. 12v bank

A shunt would show battery SOC based on how many Amp-Hours have gone through it. You should input your battery capacity in the shunt and the voltage is used to set 100% charge.

14.0v on the Renogy. Is this correct

Yes.

DC to DC charger for an absorption voltage of 14.2 to match the Victron? I think I might have it at 14.4 for some reason

Not too critical as the DC to DC is not a continious charge. By the time the batteries reach 14.0 volts they are are full.

What about the “Zero V” setting

This resets the SOC to zero and would be in the region of 10 volts.
