That is kind of what I found when I did a quick look at Victron a few times over the years, not obvious how it works or exactly what the capability is. The used to have some layouts that showed all...

That explanation is the typical one we see from most brands. I would say, for sure, the 4% is not the right tail current for almost any decent condition battery. Lifeline say 1/2% some TPPLs say...

I have not been deeply into the Victron control system, but I think it is also capable of controlling the battery charging by using the amps reading off the shunt and the battery state of charge, and...

There are many discussions on this forum on amp based charging...
