Hi, I have a victron 100/50 mppt controller connected to a 100w solar panel and feeding a 280ah Eco-worthly LifePO4 battery in my motorhome. The issue I am facing is that it is consistently showing as bulk charge and never goes to absorption or float, even thought the battery is showing as 100%(both in the victron smartshunt and on the bluetooth battery itself) I have set the values in the battery settings on the victron app according to values advised by victron /eco-worthly. Am I doing something wrong? Victron smartsolar settings Absorption 14.2 Float 14.6 Victron /eco-worthly advised settings For Victron SmartSolar charge controllers used with Eco-Worthy LiFePO4 batteries, the recommended settings are: Bulk/Absorption: 14.2V - 14.6V, Float: 14.6V, and Equalization: 13.6V - 14.0V ![Screenshot_2025-04-30-13-39-18-995_com.android.chrome](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/victron/original/3X/a/c/ac03fd376ddcb272fdecbd9d73d7a4a8ae150ab5.jpeg) ![IMG_20250430_130650](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/victron/original/3X/3/4/34997cb90611b73309d61fa65c8aa2c89fa4f875.jpeg) ![IMG_20250430_131643](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/victron/original/3X/5/d/5dce21cacb2af39313524954796112daaf0fcabb.jpeg) Many thanks for any help and advice ---

don´t hear to AI. The float Voltage has to be lower then absorbtion. Try Absorbtion at 13.8V and float at 13.6V. Some batteries need 14.2V for balancing ---

> [@Cheekytrucker](#): > > victron /eco-worthly. Yeah, there is no ecoworthy victron page. Lol. With regards to the AI answer… It certainly [doesn’t help that their own page has it flipped over either](https://www.eco-worthy.com/blogs/lithium-battery/how-to-properly-charge-my-lithium-battery-charging-guide-of-eco-worthy-lithium-battery?srsltid=AfmBOopn9DOrEvoVpuHMmJED1xUCmmjOC6Gw0g9xcP_fjJ23GUqtmCaV). ![IMG_20250430_153336](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/victron/original/3X/8/3/833b96a330b3fbd752dfcf4d907f3738b6685969.jpeg) @Cheekytrucker Swap the absorption and float values over. That then fits into the normal lithium battery charging methods. ---

Thankyou, I’ll try swapping them. 🤞 ---

Would the same apply to the orion xs 50a dc-dc charger… I had it set at the same parameters? ---

Yes, absorption always 14.0V or so and float 13.6V or so. ---

My settings for the Orion xs 50a are now Absorption 14.0 Fliat 13.6 Storage 13.5 Equalization 13.8 Does this look okay? ![Screenshot_2025-04-30-16-00-35-094_com.victronenergy.victronconnect](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/victron/original/3X/2/1/219ed5e99ca74936f24479c91f6262582f5e2efb.jpeg) ---
