There are 48V LiFePO4 batteries, with 15 3.2V cells, and 51.2V, with 16 cells. In the Victron equipment settings there is only one default option for LiFePO4 batteries, without specifying whether it is for a 48V or 51.2V battery, but the default parameters are for a 51.2V battery. In the documentati…

Trust me, they are identical settings for the Victron smart battery. The only difference is one check box. This is where you need to put the manufacturer’s settings based on the chemistry and number of cells. [Screenshot 2025-06-07 112216] [Screenshot 2025-06-07 112239]

It’s not a matter of trusting you. What you’re saying simply doesn’t make sense. The fact is that the information in the document I showed you is wrong, and the description of the option in VE Configure is incomplete (it should say it’s for 51.2V batteries and there should be an option for 48V batte…

Trust the information I am giving you. Victron have settings for their 16S configuration. There is no setting for a 15S.

Again, it’s not a matter of “trusting you”. If it were, there should be a warning in the documents: “to know what this actually means, ask Owen and trust him”! :smiley: Yes, the fact that the default parameter option that Victron provides is for 16s batteries is obvious, I also don’t need to trust y…

The 48V MultiPlus has a wide operating range of 38-66 VDC, which gives you significant flexibility in battery configuration choices. The approach should be straightforward: select your battery, then configure the charge controller settings to match that specific battery’s requirements. The “48V nom…

Well, as I said, I won’t respond to these meaningless comments anymore. Just to get back to the purpose of creating this topic and not let it get lost in meaningless comments: this topic was not created to answer any questions or to know how to configure something, but it was to point out a problem …

[image] Valdson: one default option for LiFePO4 You select the default and then edit the values for a custom profile using the lithium charge algorithm. You can even save the new profile as your own. (Also possible in ve config shown by the save on your screenshot) With so many different ba…

[image] LX: You select the default and then edit the values for a custom profile using the lithium charge algorithm. Yes, I know that, that’s not what I’m talking about. I’m not saying that it’s not possible to configure it correctly, I’m saying that the information is wrong and therefore mis…

That’s why every manual includes a clear warning: you need to know what you’re doing. Ignoring those warnings doesn’t shift responsibility—it still lies with the person taking the action. The lithium battery profile removes equalization, adds a low-temperature cutoff, adjusts absorption time, and m…

The defaults always aligned with the required settings for the matching Victron product. This made it seamless for a pure Victron environment. It is also why there are documents jointly created between Victron and the battery maker listed which have all of the required customisations. Ba…
