Should Victron Shunt “Charged Voltage” and Victron Charger “Absorption Voltage” settings be the same Values?

[featherlite]

For my 12v nominal Lifpo4 battery, I have the following settings:

Victron Smart Shunt “Charged Voltage”: 13.8v
Victron Charger “Absorption Voltage”: 13.8v

Should these settings be the same or should the shunt be set at a lower voltage?

If you need more information, I am happy to provide.

Thanks for your help.

victron recommends 0.2-0.3V below absorption for PV charging.

0.2-0.3V below absorption

So, for me, the shunt should be set at, say, 13.6 (13.8-.2).
Correct?

0.2-0.3V below absorption

And this is the case even when the shunt and charge controller are "VE Smart Networking".

Correct?

Yes. The shunt doesn't get any data from the MPPT. It's feeding them it's voltage, current and temperature data, so the presence of a network doesn't matter.

With much thanks!
