Phoned mobile RV. Super nice guy. Confirmed what you've been telling me. Told me I can do it myself. No need to pay him to come out. Walked me through it.
Pretty simple except that I expected to see two black wires going to the same breaker but none of them have that. Here are photos of the innards and the diagrams. Just need to know which black wire to disconnect.
Here is a link to photos of the innards, wiring diagram, and breaker list.

Thanks again.
If so, here's what I'd suggest: Inside the OEM converter is the DC charging section with all of it's connections and components. The topmost label from your pictures shows a connection labeled "converter pos (black)" That is the 120V feed wire that comes from the circuit breaker in the load center. I would connect that wire to one pole of a SPST switch. I would connect another black wire from the switch to the terminal in the drawing i mentioned, "converter pos (black)". If you use a toggle switch with a round base, drill a hole in the converter cover and install the switch through the hole. You will now be able to power the OEM converter or turn it off at any time with the switch.
If you have clearance issues under the OEM converter cover that won't permit a toggle switch, opt for a surface mount switch on the outside of the converter cover.
