I have a split charge system in my Kangoo with a voltage sensitive relay, made by Durite (part number 0-727-33).
Saves joining into Smart Charging systems.

Those are brilliant - a doddle to wire - one big cable to both batteries' positive and one earth wire to work the relay.

Put the earth wire on the charge relay, back to vehicle battery earth terminal, not just a vehicle earth as this circuit is very sensitive
