I've run some field tests that confirm what you say which is that when the charging sources are in voltage control, i.e. absorption charge mode, the load recognizes only the higher voltage source....

I think what you're saying is that different charging sources with disparate voltages will still contribute to battery charging when those sources are operating in the bulk/constant current mode but...

Doesn't stacking charging sources require synchronizing disparate charging voltages to a common applied voltage? How is that accomplished with your system?

Considering that the energy density of these puppies is approaching a hand grenade, I would think something might be set afire before there was a sufficient voltage drop to effect shut down.

Sure, the BMS might conclude that its associated battery has shorted but I would think that all it would do is shut it down until the load is released and would damage neither the battery nor the BMS.

As you point out, if the coach alternator croaks you still have ignition and propulsion but what about the reverse? Out in the boonies, with totally independent systems like RT uses, what do you do...
