The alternator is turned on by the ECU but other than that's it's just a normal 150A alternator.

For some reason, the words "intelligent" and "smart" are not words I usually associate with any Defender, even a Puma.
There should be no problems with what you propose, and I think that there are several others on this forum who have already installed similar systems. |

I've only got a little aux battery and have an £8 30A VSR charging it. It's hidden in the back by the rear aux power feed.

Odyssey batteries are not conventional lead acid batteries, they are AGM or absorbed glass mat so do not have any free liquid acid like a conventional lead acid battery.
Have run twin Odyssey batteries with a IBS split charge system with no problems on a 09 Defender. Will be fitting a similar system in a new Defender as well. Brendan |
