I'm looking for options for a 24V bench load tester and charger.

I'm about to dive into the LiFePO4 cell world for my RV upgrades.
I'm going to go with EVE 304Ah cells.
During my research, I've learned that many people use the EBC-A40L for mapping capacity and charging profiles. I really like that unit, but it's only limited to 5V, which for individual cell testing is great, and even running it in parallel, but on an assembled unit, typical use would require 12, 24, or 48V capability.
This let me to look into the ET5410A+, as it can go well past the 48V limit, it's 400W capable, and I thought I was all set.
Not so fast. If I'm reading it correctly, the ET5410A+ is only a load tester, meaning it can't charge.

So back to the drawing board.
What do you use that won't break the bank for this hobbyist user?
