I'm trying to gain some insight and discuss this in a practical sense rather than moving to the theoretical. I live full time in my RV with a solar set up. Through my own lax attitude I've run my leisure battery down to the low voltage cut off. Could I put my leisure battery (280Ah Eve cells, self built) in parallel with my starter to provide a functional charge for my battery without catastrophic damage?
We aren't talking about a permanent set up here or the fact that there would obviously be more efficient ways to charge. We are talking about a cold, dark environment that could be allievated by getting a bucket of amps into a battery! It wouldn't involve trying to get battery to 100%, but merely functional.
From reading around the two issues that regularly crop seems to be alternator overheating due to the low internal resistance of lithium batteries and voltage spikes due to a BMS shut down. In other places I've read paralleling with lead acid starter batteries can mitigate that.
Opinions? Real world tests?
