If you want to use LiFePO4 batteries and you want to treat them right you should really consider buying a BankManager. It can charge them correctly for a really long life and it lets you use your old lead based charging system with little or no modifications.
In this video I go the the process of installing, testing, and operating a BankManager on my lab desk where you can easily see the whole install.
You might want to have the Install manual open while watching this video to follow along with the drawings: cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/0568/1011/1110/files/MANUAL___BankManager_3.X.pdf?v=1730313977
You can find the Facebook group that supports the BankManager here:

The BankManager information page is at:
marinedcac.com/pages/bankmanager
the BankManager was integrated into:
npmjs.com/package/bt-sensors-plugin-sk
that's where that power use graph came from.
Here is a link to the installation of a Gen2 in a viewers boat:
