I’ve connected new batteries to my Victron Phoenix Smart IP43 Charger Model 24/25 (1+1). It used to be wet lead-acid batteries, but now it’s AGM. Should I pay attention to anything when connecting the charger? Should I run a program (reconditioning) on it?
Thanks and regards

Do not carry out a reconditioning charge and make sure equalisation is turned off. Most AGMs do not like higher voltages that can cause gassing as used during reconditioning or equalisation. Often AGM charge voltages are a bit lower than wet lead acid, check your battery datasheets / manufacturers instructions.
