I've used BECs, most are for relatively low power applications, having said that there are many HV UBECs that can handle 12V and over 5A, that could add additional smoothing to the input. It depends on what the battery needs for charging, I'd think more volts and less current.

Do these batteries use cell balancing charging?? This just balances the cells to equal charge states, I guess it would be inbuilt if it's used.

A possibility might be a charge unit between the regulator output and the battery which would be something else again.
