How about using a same 12v battery

OP - Lithium batteries are very particular as to how they are charged (Think Boeing 787 fires!) so using any charger other than the specified unit is looking for trouble.
If this works on 12V, then the suggestion to maintain your chassis batteries with the solar unit and use those batteries to provide power to the Lithium charger is probably the best.
