I wanted to get rid of the converter and get an inverter and a better charger just to run the tv and small appliances so I don't have to run the gen if I'm off the grid. My issue now is I bought a used magnum 1000w inverter charger but it only has a 20 amp pass through relay for shore power instead of 30. It has the smart switch but with the low amperage I'm not sure how to route it to make it work. I know I should've got a 30 amp but the price was right.
That's easy. Just power the one branch circuit you need.
Remove the branch circuit romex from the panel and attach to the inverter output. Get a short piece of romex and attach to the inverter input and to the panel where the other wire was removed.
Main cord --> main breaker --> branch breaker -->
inverter in --> inverter out --> branch circuit
