Connecting a second 12VDC battery
How is the second battery electrically connected? Just paralleled? Do you add a disconnect for each for quicker charging one at a time? Thinking another battery would be better for boondocking.

While recharging using solar is the nearest thing to a free lunch you may every find, having an excellent device to charge the battery bank is definitely NOT moot, when powered by a generator.
I never said it was, rather I said having a good converter IS moot if one always charges while camping with solar and not a genset. That said, the OP will eventually go home and presuming he keeps the trailer where he can plug into shore power he would benefit from upgrading his WFCO converter which never achieves it's advertised 14.4 volt bulk charge rate for something like a Progressive Dynamics 9200 series that will. I myself turned off my own WFCO and instead use a stand alone CTEK charger which does deliver to the battery a proper 14.4 volt bulk charge.
