I will be upgrading my house batteries from lead acid to LiFePo4. There is currently a BIM so I have bought a LiBIM to replace it. I like the idea of having the chassis batteries connected so they stay charged and I can connect them to jump start if ever necessary but I don't like the idea of my alternator running at near max output even for 15 min.
Sometimes I come up with what I think is a good solution for a problem but have doubts when I can't find where others have done it.... so I ask
Is it possible to add a 30 or 50 amp DC to DC converter inline with the LiBIM? If I cannot find a bidirectional DC to DC converter then could I use a busbar to put two converters in opposite directions?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
