I would think the standard diversion controller setup would work, but not sure.  I've been hoping that the Li+ manufacturers would add a relay control to their BMS.  Basically when the battery thinks its charged it just turns on the dump load.  I don't think the Li+ folks are near that far

Thanks Bill, and everyone else: When I was a CA solar contractor, I designed and oversaw the installation of over 20 “grid-tied battery back up systems”. I now have an approved application into the Southern California Edison SGIP program, spec’ing a 16 kWh and 8 kW “smart” e-storage system.
