Here's how our DLS-30/IQ4* charged our new SOK 100Ah lithium battery. This was the second 0-100% charge that our SOK battery instructions called for, to calibrate the battery management system. Perhaps it would have charged even higher, but I gave up at almost 38 hours and "100%". I should have gone further with our solar LiFePO4 charger, but it wasn't hooked up for a few more weeks.
I suppose why I've been told it will only charge a LiFePO4 battery to around 80% is because it takes too long to continue. But plugging in overnight before a trip will get us pretty high, and driving an hour will get us topped off.
