I'm thinking about buying a Noco Genius G26000 26a smart charger for when the sun isn't getting my batteries charged.

I have a FR Stealth Toyhauler with two Interstate GC2 208ah batteries. They do everything I want and more when I am able to get them fully charged. 99% of our camping is boondocking and our solar system will get the batteries fully charged during the summer assuming it is sunny and we aren't in the woods. I have a crappy 55a Wyco converter that never gives more than 13.7a to the batteries.

When charging I use a 2000w Yamaha inverter.

I've read about all the threads on replacement converters, the Meanwell power supplies and other options. But I keep coming back to the Noco for it's many charging options and convenience.

Now that the pundits have had their say I'll chime in and say I'm quite happy with my CTEK Multi US 7002 7 amp charger. Yes, I would have preferred the CTEK Multi US 25000 25 amp charger (competitor to the NOCO Genius G26000) but it was significantly more costly and I don't have a need to recharge often or to recharge using a genset so quick charging wasn't a concern for me. The upside to a stand alone charger like the CTEKs or NOCOs is just that - they're stand alone and don't require any modification to your trailer at all. Just turn off your existing WFCO and connect the portable directly to your battery (or batteries). Unlike my WFCO which I've never seen exceed 13.6 volts my CTEK does do an honest 14.4 volts (or 14.8 if selected) and on that basis alone has been a great investment. Considering the parameters you've discussed I'd say you have nothing to lose by buying that NOCO G26000 and trying it out ... my bet is it will serve your needs just fine. :)
