Curious how you are charging the second battery. Assuming you are tied into the vehicle electrical system in some form. Any issues with BMS on the truck or did you disable it?

yes.they are joined together.. auto/start,stop has been disabled. no problems yet for charging. But I believe my oem ford battery is coming to the end of its life cycle as I'm now getting warnings after sitting for weekends start truck battery low
