I can plug directly into the camper I am not sure what amp the converter is atm. I could go direct to the battery as well I haven't looked into charging batteries that are in a series.

You would plug the trailer into the Honda generator just as you have been doing. No need to unplug the solar controller, it will run along with the generator just fine.
