Hi, advice please if this would be fine and not cause issues with either the batteries or the inverter. I have read that LifePo4 batteries aren't compatible with older alternators. So is this workaround ok? - Leave existing leisure batteries as they are (2 x 100 AH) connected parallel, charged by alternator from engine. And then from here add a 12v smart charger supplying the 2 100 AH LifePo4 batteries for topping them up?
Thanks.
