Batteries with high antimony content can typically be charged with a lower
absorption voltage than batteries with low antimony content. (Please refer to our
book "Electricity on Board" downloadable from our website
for details and suggestions about charging batteries). Contact your battery supplier
for the correct
charge voltages and change (with VE-configure) the voltage settings if required.
The default charge current setting is 75 % of the maximum charge current. This
current will be too high for most applications.
For most battery types the optimal charge current is 0.1-0.2x the battery capacity.
