I have a basic 12v 1200VA inverter with built-in 10A charger hooked up to a 200Ah LiFePo battery. It just charges off AC - no solar here.
My issue is the 10A charge is not enough to keep up with stage 6 load shedding.
I'm looking at buying this or something like it - just a good quality charger that'll run at 20A or more.
The charge function on my existing inverter would be switched off so it would function purely as an inverter.
How do I wire up the charger? Just stick it in parallel?
Is there another component I need to add?
