Outboard charging lithium
Hello , I am considering installing lifepo4 batteries on my Yamaha 9.9 powered PDQ36. Most of the charging is done by solar so that is easy to ajust.
With that in mind can I hook the engine directly to the lifepo4 battery with out frying it.
It is not clear that the alternator would produce enough power to kick the battery 2 battery charger on.
I realize that lithium is not great for cranking but the motors start easily.
I could separate the systems completely but not using the engine charging system seems silly .
