I would like to connect my alternator and smart solar mppt controller to the start battery and then to the alternator/start terminal on the BMS CL 12/100. This is on a 30 ft sailboat and I don’t run the engine enough to ensure that the start battery is kept charged so this configuration would ensure that the solar charges the start battery before the house bank.
i would also like to know if the BMS CL 12/100 would work in the above scenario with non Victron LiFePO4 batteries (i.e. battle born or re-lion)
Thanks
Tim
