I have a Ventus 2CXM with solar panels for charging the batteries.
There is a panel mounted selection switch to direct the solar charge
to engine battery or to the individual avionic batteries. I am
thinking of upgrading my avionic batteries to LiFePo. Does anyone
know if my solar panel charger would work with LiFePo batteries or if
there be problems doing so? I am aware that the engine battery must
remain a lead acid battery.

I would contact the manufacturers of the battery and the solar charge
controller to ask each the same question: are these two items compatible?
