Figured out how to get solar to the lithium.

Thinking further ahead (I can see adding more lithium batteries since I have the room) how do you run the whole coach off an inverter? Not interested...

What happens if a depleted lead acid is shorted to a full lithium? It appears the B to B charger needs to be in series with the lithium at all times. Booster, if you test this wear eye protection!

OK, I'll get the Kisae. If it doesn't boost voltage we could put a voltage booster ahead of it. Reading the specs again it appears it does. 10.5v in 13.8v out.

Let me know ASAP if you think it...

I am going to assume we want the 30 amp Kisae charger rather than the 50 because we intend to top off the lead acid. Amazon doesn't sell the 50.

In reading the manual the Kisae charger never will...

Last year it was at 7 mile parking at $15 a night. This year I plan to pick a free spot. The retired NFS guy says dispersed camping is limited in Moab. I don't find that to be the case.

I haven't found a 12 volt to 12 volt charger that will boost voltage. If you look into the one at Smart Battery it doesn't do it. I guess it is just there to limit current and drop voltage from the...

It should work. 14.4 volts should charge 12.9 volts. What happens if, at the same time, you are using some power remains to be seen. Maybe there would be no charging.
