Victron energy Blue Smart IP22 Charger 12/15 Manual page 8

i) Storage stage
An additional stage to extend battery life whilst the battery is unused and on continuous charge.
j) Recondition stage
An optional stage that can partially recover/reverse lead acid battery degradation due to
sulfation; typically caused by inadequate charging or if the battery is left in a deeply discharged
state.
k) Low current mode
An optional mode that limits the maximum charge current to a significantly reduced level;
recommended when charging lower capacity batteries with a high current charger.
l) Recovery function
The Blue Smart Charger range will attempt to recharge a severely discharged battery (even
down to 0V) with low current and then resume normal charging once the battery voltage has
risen sufficiently - many other chargers will not recognise a battery in this state.
m) Power supply mode
A specific mode to use the charger as a DC power supply; to power equipment at a constant
voltage with or without a battery connected.
