🔋 ExpertPower 12V 20A Smart Charger: Optimized for Lithium LiFePO4 Deep Cycle Rechargeable Batteries Review

I made a mistake in my purchase. It's overpriced for what it offers. I keep it to punish myself for being as clueless and mean as I was looking for a charger. So now I have an expensive, low-quality charger that only works for lithium-ion batteries, and an ultra-high-end all-weather charger that will charge anything it's plugged into for less than $55. The Victron Blue Smart Charger also tracks each step of the charging process, telling you where it is in each step and telling you when it's…

to operate portable camping water system with SeaFlo 55 psi pump. I bought a battery charger and when I first plugged it in the battery read about 12.7 volts indicating it was about 50% charged (which is normal). The charger initially put out 4.5 amps, and over the next three hours the voltage gradually increased and the current dropped. During the last 30 minutes of the charge cycle, the charger delivered approximately 1/2 amp at 14.2 volts. The charge cycle ended and the charge indicator…

I've run several full charge cycles on this 5A model and it works reliably, delivering just over 5A from a deeply discharged battery. then drops to 4A at about 2/3 full charge and 2.5A at 97% full charge. The current dropped to this level, which allowed the quiescent voltage to drop to the 13.6V expected of LiFePO4 at 100% charge, but my 5A model never seems to do that. Instead, once the LED turns green, it simply keeps the battery at around 14.4V indefinitely (I let it run for 5 or 6 hours)…
