Those response are what initially concerned me. However, the bulk of the info I have been able to gather suggests it may not be right. The better view seems to be that much depends on the charging voltage which, for LiFePo4 batteries, needs to be in the range 14.4 to 14.6. A lot of the older PWM type devices don’t come up to that level but most MPPT chargers do.
