Hey everyone. I have just installed a new EG4 24v 30a battery charger on my 2x 12v 100ah lithium setup. The charger works great and I'm getting 30a with a large gauge extension cord. This setup is in my off-grid truck camper for when I need a quick charge in town or overnight at a campground. I have been in cloudy weather for a few days now and I have noticed on the victron shunt graph that the battery charger reaches 100 percent, stays there for 4 hours then shuts down completely. This is not ideal for plugging in at night and then waking up to a depleted battery since the charger stopped inputting after 4h. I then have to unplug the charger for a few minutes and plug it back in to get it to kick on again. I'm not seeing anything about this in the manual. Is this normal operation for the EG4 charger to not also maintain the battery while plugged in? Thank you in advance!
Looks like they don't sell the 30a anymore but here is a link to the 35a. same style:
