Charging voltage

My new RV comes with a factory B2B with a lithium option, the only issue is their preset voltage: charge 14.6 and float 13.8 I have a Victron 100 amp smart battery with BMS and it clearly states 14.3 & 13.5 are the voltages. Question will this damage my battery?

@Big Ste

It may not damage the smart lithium as cells can take a bit more, but 14.6V is definitely on the high side. That's 3.65V per cell - borderline. And it probably will also reduce any warranty claims.

So, not recommended. See our Orion smart or for any other DC-DC charger that can do user presets.

Is there no way of adjusting these values?

Probably ok for a while. Don't connect the temp sensor.
