For boats, we are now using Lithium Iron Phosphate batteries, which 
unlike lead acid, will accept the full charge current until the battery 
management system disconnects the charge source to avoid damaging the 
cells. This sudden disconnection causes the windings in the alternator 
to generate a spike which can easily destroy the rectifier diodes and 
regulator electronics. The spike contains tens of joules of energy, so 
can reach over 100 Volts depending on the other loads. For this reason, 
we always connect a lead acid battery to the alternator and use a DC-DC 
converter to charge the PiFePO4 batteries.
