Ahh thanks but I think we missed to mark. I know what a converter is and how it works. Also chargers and inverters. What I asked is if there is a converter/charger that also includes an inverter. Why? Simply because of convenience. The converter/charger already has a large guage wire direct to the battery's. And would also have the 120vac circuits for the inverter to supply power to the existing outlets.
I created a set up like this on my last RV with an aftermarket inverter but had to use toggle switches to switch the 120vac circuits between shore and inverter power to avoid the two colliding and possibly frying the inverter.
So, is there a converter/charger that has a built in inverter? It would be much more efficient and simpler to have one built in to the converter/charger then installing and integrating a 3rd party.
