The batteries are on order, leaving CZ today, and should arrive her in
Germland by next week. I have a new charger/inverter (Victron Energy
MultiPlus 30-2000-80 (already in) plus a Lynx VE.can in a week or so),
but the batteries themselves have a BMS installed. At the moment, my
plan is to keep the existing charging in place, ie. keep the engine
charging alternator connected.

is the battery I got, in case someone wonders.
