Regarding "jumper cables," many TC owners will install "jumper cables" permanently in their truck, running directly from under the hood, to their camper batteries, underneath, out of sight, to maximize the charge rate. Minimum 6ga wire, preferably heavier.
It's not 100% but it is better than the factory charging system and will help you extend your batteries on longer trips.
On longer trips the heavier gauge wire isn't really needed since you'll have plenty of time to get the batteries up to charge. It's getting the batteries topped off on short trips that calls for the heavy wiring.
