My question about this is why could you not use a smaller gauged wired from wherever the Alternator connects to your House batteries, probably the BiRD relay/trombetta switch, and limit the amps the lithium batteries could receive that way?
Say a 6 gauge wire can carry 75 DC amps. If you have a 100 amp alternator then it's never going to be able to push more than the 6 gauge wire can carry so you'd never over-amp it. There Has to be something I'm not considering because that seems too easy.
You also have this option
