    Double click base phase initial additive. A window should pop up and it will have a 2d table with numbers on top

    Is it required to clear LV when flashing the same file altered to the AGM config?

    So why am I at 14.3 on 94 base duty? Because I didn't up the rest of the settings other than 13.7 as Mat mentioned?

    I was kind of leary using oldschool403's setting because he said he has a dual battery set up. Prob doesn't make a difference tho but what do I know.

    I think you need to increase the percentages, or it won't get as high. I only have a single AGM, and oldschools settings worked, except I used 95 instead of 96.

    I don't think so. I didn't want my truck to have to relearn everything all over again after a few thousand miles lol

    Been awhile since I’ve had to flash. Just jumped to 35’s and wanted to change my tune to the bigger tire size. Tried to flash in vf and all buttons are greyed out. Tried flash manager and all are greyed out. Tried reinstalling flash manager and all tactrix drivers and no luck still all greyed out. Any tips/fixes?

    Like @tonered said, you may be on old version of vF. Go to ovtune website and download the latest.

    Quoting my own post, I just loaded a 2.0 premium stock THX 35 where I made the changes shown in my post above. Although I set 30-168 to 94 instead of 93. I’m getting 14.36 V at idle both with multimeter on terminals and using the data logger and peak of 14.5 driving using the cig plug reader referenced in this thread. Think I’ll leave it here for a bit and err on the side of caution. Running a 24F X2 battery.

    That doesn't look to be AGM

    Edit: for flooded you don't want the increased charge voltage, it will hurt the battery.

    Whoops. You are correct. I looked up the wrong one. This is it.

    Yeah, that’s not an AGM. I wouldn’t mess with your voltage.

    I’m also not an authority on battery charging and voltages, just a heads up. I’m learning as well.

    Personally, I’m targeting the lower charging voltages for AGM’s just to be a little cautious. I’m monitor my battery charge level with a charger I have, and if it’s getting charged I don’t think I’ll go any higher than where I’m at.

    I have VFTuner. Don't know if that's why I didn't see the drop downs. I have the tunes for my ECU download and flashed the reg-stock tune. There appears to be same default tunes that were added when I installed VFTuner so I assume I can use the appropriate one if necessary. Test drive approaches in a few minutes.
