    Switching my RVs house battery to a LifePO4

    That is not true. Many lead acid chargers will charge to a voltage that will cause the lithium battery BMS to trip out on high voltage.

    Starlink or Garmin in reach

    PLBs are worldwide. They are on every ship and plan. The problem is there is no two way comms, which is a big deal in the rescue.

    LiFePO4 Charging: AC to DC Charger: Multiple batteries?

    You seriously have no idea what you are talking about. The batteries control the charge and cell balancing internally. It matters not what happens outside.

    LiFePO4 Charging: AC to DC Charger: Multiple batteries?

    The batteries will have built in battery management systems, so it will work fine. You do not need to do anything special. You just give a constant 14.4 voltage and the batteries manage the charging internally.
