As long as your lith battery is charged full or near full and the lith batt voltage is above, at, or very near the voltage supplied by the alternator, they will be no harm done. I did this for thousands of miles with my Y2K RV with problems at all.I understand they can starve your vehicles battery and burn up the alternator, remedy ?
How would one connect it, orI should say wire it in. Would it be in the tow rig wiring schematic or trailer plug/rig schematic?As long as your lith battery is charged full or near full and the lith batt voltage is above, at, or very near the voltage supplied by the alternator, they will be no harm done.

But I finally put in the DC to DC Converter much like mentioned in the above post. It will have one disadvantage; you won't be able to use your switch to add the house battery current to the engine battery for starting when your engine battery is too weak to start. No path back that way. But the DC2DCC will limit the current to a safe amount to the lith battery at all times and has a max charge current (30 amps, IIRC). It's probably the best way to do it. The big advantage is when the lith battery needs a big charge and would otherwise draw a lot of current. The DC2DCC prevents that from happening but still charges at a safe rate.

You need to find the wire that provides the charging from your alternator to the house battery and wire that to the input of the of the DC2DCC and the DC2DCC output to your house battery.How would one connect it, orI should say wire it in.

My trailer hitch cable runs into the camper then there is only the red black cables to the battery box im assuming I need to tap into the power line in that cable or someplace in the camper which would lead me into the underbelly?You need to find the wire that provides the charging from your alternator to the house battery and wire that to the input of the of the DC2DCC and the DC2DCC output to your house battery.
