Are you an installer if so why would you say thisI am not a great fan of the BM1 so not looked in detail. I would be surprised if it was not still fairly usable. I guess what it might be missing is the ability to change the charge efficiency and peukert exponent for fine tuning of the SoC.
There are some quite different opinions about using Relays vs B2Bs with Lithium, and there are people whose opinions I totally respect who are quite happy to use a relay and rely on the Alternator to essential do the current limiting. Personally speaking, I always go for a B2B as a controlled limiting device, especially when installing on an older vehicle where the Alternator may be getting a little tired and the extra extreme load of a Lithium Leisure Battery might tip it over the edge (personal preference).
I would tell them they MUST have some kind of State of Charge Monitor, be it a add-on one such as Victron BMV or NASA Marine BM1
If you're not up on the bm1?
