My Sterling 60A Battery to Battery Charger testing with charge contoller/bms shutoff

Perhaps the best (safe) way to add Lifepo4 to your boat will be to charge your lithium bank with a battery to battery charger. This way you can keep your alternator and shore charging system the same as I have. However, I believe in shutting off the charger a conservative set point of 13.8v because I don't want to hassle and mess around with over voltage cells. 13.8 is a really safe cutoff.
