    <p>To add to Jeff's suggestion of targeting 95%, many Li+ batteries
      have a spike in voltage as they reach 100%.  We just don't have to
      worry anymore about sulfate damage from under charging.  <br>

      Hi Kris
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>What voltage do you have your charge settings at?  </div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>I recommend that bulk or absorb voltage for lithium iron
        phosphate not be set above 56 V  - there is no reason for it
        even though many manufactures suggest higher settings.      In
        cases where total storage is sized generously enough I  often
        use 55.6 or even 55.4 in order to target 95% as full instead of
        100% in order to extend cycle life.   and for float there’s no
        reason to ever go over 54 V and better maybe even to be in the
        mid-53s. </div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>See if that helps assuming you had it higher. </div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>The other thought is you have one bms that is perhaps not
        protecting overcharge  and allowing a temporary spike when the
        others do limit. </div>
      <div><br>
      </div>
      <div>Hope that helps!  </div>

              <div dir="auto">I have seen an issue on two different
                systems that I am hoping someone can shed some light on
                for me.  One was a 48 volt pack of 12 volt Battle Bornes
                and the other was a 24 volt pack of SOKs.  What happens
                is when reaching the end of the bulk charging stage, the
                battery voltage spikes and sends the inverter into an
                overvoltage error.  Can anyone explain what is happening
                and a solution?</div>
