I'm looking at installing a 24v LiFePO4 400AH system in my coastal cruiser. I'm planning to keep all my electronics, lights, and systems at 12v and using a couple of downconverters to provide 12v power to those systems... I think this will work pretty good for most of my needs, but I don't want to rely on solar for charging. I have a high output alternator on my diesel inboard (135A) but of course it's at 12v. I'd like to upconvert this to roughly 70A/ 24v for charging the batteries. Is this doable? If so, what do I need to make this happen, equipment-wise?
