I saw a video on the Victron Energy YouTube channel where they showed alternators burning out when charging lithium at low speeds due to the high draw but low cooling effect from the internal alternator fan.
If I run a split charge via the van lead acid battery I assume the internal resistance of the lead acid battery will negate this?
Obviously, I’d like to charge as quickly a possible. I have 300 watts of solar and am planning to add 300ah of lithium.
Solar is pretty useless here in the UK in winter and I want to power a house fridge/freezer via an efficient inverter all year.
I drive around an hour a day so I don’t want to waste the ‘free’ charging.
