Breaker tripping.
Would a bad battery cause the breaker to the converter to trip?

Possibly, depends on how the battery failed and on the converter and the wires between them and the size of the breaker..... IN short, a whole bunch of things.
My converter is a PDI Intella-Power 9180, this can easily suck over 10 amps before the fuses blow if it is feeding a low resistance load (Shorted battery). (The fuses are on the converter).
If you had a larger converter and a 15 amp breaker, and shorted batteries, it's possible..
That said. It is NOT likely.
Since you did the battery disconnect thing (A very good diagnostic thing) and it still tripped the breaker.. Time for an upgrade
May I recommend the PDI 9200 series from Best Converter s
WFFCO is made in China and has a very Made in China Rep (Not very good).
