understanding about MPPT and how to build a charge controller.
Now question is about battery charging cycle:
Here as i have 12V battery say 110Ah then safe charging rate when battery discharged is 0.5 to 0.7 of charge rate/discharge rate.
I need to charge battery with mppt mode to put out maximum current into it provided the charging rate doesnot cross permissible level.
My question is:
what are the voltages i should refer as discharged,charged.
I am using voltage sensing at battery:
here i can assume that when voltage<=12V (not charged) MPPT mode
12V-14.4V constant voltage mode
14.4V and above termination.
Are these values correct?
What i have to refer to know the exact voltages i should sense to correctly charge the battery?

And it's specified to look for voltage per cell i.e:
2.2V/cell(discharged) to 4.2V/cell(charged)
And when starts charging in MPPT mode the voltage should reach around 60%(4.2)=2.22V or 70%(4.2)=2.94 then constant voltage mode till 90%of(4.2V)charged & later termination.
But how to find number of cells in battery to find out exact full charged or full discharged state?
