I have a feeling that there has been a misunderstanding about the inverter and it's the converter that was upgrated.
A converter changes 120 volts ac to 12 volts dc which also charges the coach batteries when 120 volts is available.
An Inverter changes 12 volts dc to 120 volts ac and unless you have a very large battery bank and a very large inverter, you can't run a very large 120 volt load from an inverter.
