What's the purpose of a battery in a camper?
Why does a camper have a battery? You don't have a starter. If you are always connected to shore power, why do you need one? Maybe if I boondocked, but the power from a battery isn't going to do much ...

You can get by fine with no battery in a truck camper if that is the goal.
The 12 volt items will be temporarily not functioning unless they have power including furnace, fridge, propane water heater, lights, water pump, fans etc. 12v power can come from the truck or the converter when plugged in.
An old unit with an old converter such as magnetek 6300 needs a battery to filter ripple in the poor 12 volt supply.
You might have the moderator move this to the truck camper forum to get more specific experience.
