Hi, I am using an IP22 12/30 to charge a 200amp LFP04 battery. It works well. However I want to leave it connected to shore power to power the fridge. The fridge draws around 4.5amps when cycled on, in a 24 hour period it will average an amp per hour.
Is it safer/better to use ‘power supply’ mode when the boat is unattended or should I simply leave it in ‘charge’ mode to maintain the battery at ‘float’ level and supply intermittent power to the fridge?
I don’t usually leave the battery on charge when I’m not on board for long periods, for short periods - a few hours - I dial it down to 15 amps. Just being cautious.
So to use ‘Power Supply’ or not to use ‘Power Supply’ to keep the beer cold?
Thanks in advance
