I would check out the disconnect switch and the wiring from the switch to the actual disconnect relay. Maybe there's some chafing or something causing it to periodically short out and flip the disconnect.
(Typically, the switch by the door just activates solenoids in the actual disconnect relay, which is located either near the battery or near the converter/power center.)
With the unit connected to shore power all the time, even a pretty marginal battery should be sufficient; it doesn't really need to store any significant amount of power, just smooth out the output of the converter.
