So here it is (for now) in the outside OEM battery box of the camper.
A. SiO2 on end (as allowed)
B. Inverter with yellow extension cord that goes around to where the shore power cord is where it can be plugged into either the yellow cord or else a shore power source (but never both at once!)
C. The inverter also acts as the voltmeter for the SiO2. 13.0 v showing here (full SiO2). Chart of voltage vs SOC is there on top of the battery
D. Vector charger (clamped on at the back out of sight) that operator sets to 20 amps (not 35!) to be under the 0.25C charging rate, easy to plug into that outside receptacle as shown
The rest of the camper electric stuff is inside as usual with a 55 amp converter on a pair of 6s (under the closet floor-removable to get at the 6s- but vented to outside). So that is my "split bank" arrangement.
