Lead-acid batteries get automatic 12V\/24V detection. For lithium types, you set the system voltage and can adjust the charge voltage from 11V to 15V on a 12V system or 22V to 30V on a 24V system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eBluetooth App Monitoring\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe BougeRV app shows operating data and fault status and lets you change parameters in real time.
