Those 50V-40A Schottky diodes are pretty hefty, although very reasonable in price.
I expect you would want a heat sink with them. I suspect if one were using a float

Re: Station on Battery
In some alarm systems they use a special battery harness with a diode in it for parallel 12v 7 AH batteries. In essence, this keeps one battery from draining the other in event of a shorted cell(s).

When you connect those batteries in parallel, you'll want to have diodes installed on the positive leads of each battery. Reason for this is when running on batteries, if one discharges faster

I'm not entirely sure about matching the type of charger with type of battery, but two thoughts to look into to see if it fits your application:
harborfreight has a cheap <$10 USD float charger .. and
