 Most charts and tables showing voltage v. SoC assume moderate rates of charge like 0.2[[electrical:12v:battery_capacity|C]] (20A per 100Ah of capacity).  At that rate the charts are reasonably accurate. Most charts and tables showing voltage v.

-**Very high charge rates**, as sometimes seen with [[id=electrical:12v:drop-in_lifepo4#mythyou_must_use_dc-dc_for_alternator_charging_li|alternator charging]] or large [[electrical:converter|shore power chargers]], can throw off these chart estimates. 0.8C charging might only yield 80% SoC when one expected 90%. Conversely, **very low charge rates** may result in unintentional overcharge;  98% instead of 90%.+**Very high charge rates**, as sometimes seen with [[electrical:12v:drop-in_lifepo4#mythyou_must_use_dc-dc_for_alternator_charging_li|alternator charging]] or large [[electrical:converter|shore power chargers]], can throw off these chart estimates. 0.8C charging might only yield 80% SoC when one expected 90%.

 One rule of thumb is that the bank is fully charged when you are at your target voltage and current acceptance has decreased to ≤0.10C. One rule of thumb is that the bank is fully charged when you are at your target voltage and current acceptance has decreased to ≤0.10C.
