In many/most situations, direct-charging the house bank with [[electrical:12v:alternator#combiners|a combiner]] (relay, isolator, VSR) is both effective and inexpensive. Even [[electrical:12v:directcharginglfp|with lithium banks]]. | In many/most situations, direct-charging the house bank with [[electrical:12v:alternator#combiners|a combiner]] (relay, isolator, VSR) is both effective and inexpensive.

However, some advanced situations may require a **DC-to-DC charger**. These are much more intelligent (and expensive) devices that sit in between the vehicle batteries and the house batteries, and actively adjust both the voltage and current flowing from the vehicle's electrical system and into the house batteries. | However, **some use cases may require a DC-to-DC charger**.
