Don't buy another generator. Investigate why your current generator is not charging your house battery like it should.
Number one thing to do is to buy a digital multimeter. You can buy a cheap one from Harbor Freight and it will get you through testing your charging system out. Link
Or buy a battery charger and plug it into an outlet in the RV and hook it to the house battery to charge.
The generator will power the outlets in your RV, both inside and outside. So start the generator and plug in a battery charger and charge the house battery.
Check the circuit breakers to see if any are tripped preventing the charger from charging the house battery.
