After a few months of oddly-confident claims that "you need DC-DC charging" the source of the confusion is revealed. OP is making a hasty generalization from his own experience hammering a 95A with a 200Ah LiFePO4 bank. Yes, even I would use a DC-DC (or increase resistance in the circuit) in that scenario. A wise man knows what his ass can bear.

I share data from my own direct-charging setup but I don't use it to tell other people what "they need." IME people who tell you "what you need" don't know and don't care what you need. Rant concluded.

Installing a marine battery isolator might sound like a daunting task but it’s not that difficult. To install proper #boat #battery #isolator #switches you start off by disconnecting the negative terminal from the batteries.🔋🚤 https://australianatlas.wordpress.com/2024/09/03/how-to-install-the-right-marine-battery-isolators/

Here's the other side, let's see what mastodons cropping algo likes about it if I don't crop it beforehand like I did the first one.
This one shows the Narda made microwave isolator. #isolator.
11 - 18GHz is a tad useless for most ham radio use. But here it is perfect, as we want to multiply to #122GHz hamband and our generator covers 2 - 20GHz.

The Würzburg-Dresden Cluster of Excellence ct.qmat has designed a #ferromagnetic #topological #isolator - a milestone on the way to energy-efficient #quantum #technologies.

”The #Isolator is a bizarre helmet invented by Hugo Gernsback in 1925 that was used to help increase focus and concentration by rendering the wearer deaf, piping them full of oxygen, and limiting their vision to a tiny horizontal slit.” #design #invent #invention #history

Added another report of #isolator direct-charging #LiFePO4 from alternator:
