 Less common setpoints:
   * **Absorption duration** - the amount of time Vabs will be held until dropping to Vfloat.  May be used instead of or in addition to any endAmps above.  endAmps is more precise but can be tricky to measure, as [[electrical:12v:loads|loads]] or [[electrical:12v:multipoint_charging|multiple controllers]] can obscure the true level of current being accepted by the battery.
-  * **Absorption restart** - voltage (or duration) at which Absorption stage after failing to maintain Vfloat
+  * **Absorption restart** - voltage (or duration) at which Absorption stage after failing to maintain Vfloat.  Sometimes called //rebulk// or //reboost//.
   * **Equalization duration** - the amount of time the controller will hold Vequal.
   * **Equalization frequency** - the number of days between equalization.  30 days is typical.
