Can anybody explain whatis happening with a dc/ dc charger being used in an RV to charge a 12 v LifePo aux battery.
It is a Victron Orion tr smart 121230 unit that reads an input voltage of 13.5v, an output voltage of 14.5 v, whilst connected to the discharged LiFe batt ( reading 11.5 v)
but no charge current flows ?
The blutooth data says it is in “Accumulation mode” (constant current ?), when it should be in ”Bulk charge mode” ( max current = 30amps).
I am struggling to understand how a charger can have a 3.0v voltage differential to thebattery, but not provede a charge current ?
..so are several auto techs, and Victron support !,
any suggestionorcomments welcome….before i buy a alternative unit. !
