The 2000 watt and 1000 watt will charge the batteries in exactly the same amount of time, using the convertor... So long as the convertors power draw is less than 1000 watts (very likely).
The EU1000i, as an example, is continuous rated at 900 watts, not 1000 watts. Secondly, even if a converter was rated at a maximum draw of 900 watts it still wouldn't be able to draw full power due to it's rather poor PF rating, often .7 or even less, the end result being VA that's well beyond the capability of the EU1000i to produce. The result - longer charge time.
