I've used this Intellitec Latching Relay for the exact setup you've got. Latching relay On a previous rig we ran a separate setup for 2 satellite dishes and the entire home entertainment system off 4 separate AGM batteries. In addition, we put one of these before a separate inverter that runs our household refrigerator, so we don't have to run the house inverter with it's associated overhead while boondocking. We now use it in the current Bus and it handled the household refrig inverter powering the fridge, a 16 cu ft chest freezer and a basement 4 cu ft freezer. We were loaded with salmon, halibut and shrimp from a summer in Alaska.
One of the benefits of this relay is that it doesn't consume any power when in the OPEN or CLOSED position. It latches in position and takes a momentary rocker switch to change it's position.
