 +==== charge-and-stop ====
  
 +Charge-and-stop usually charges to 14.2v or 14.4v then stops until nank voltage drops to 13.2v before restarting Bulk charging. 
 +
 +Under very light loads this would result in cycling between 90% and 100% state of charge.  Because of [[electrical:12v:voltage_sag|voltage sag]] heavy loads might result in cycling between 95% - 100%.  
 +
 +If this is undesirable behavior you can set up a USER profile with whatever setpoints you wish ([[electrical:12v:drop-in_lifepo4#mythyou_can_t_charge_li_with_a_lead_battery_charger|suggested settings]]).
