We do the same here for our campers...
The one drawback for us is the charging of the batteries. If your converter/charger always just puts out 13.6VDC then this will over time boil out your battery fluids.
I originally had a single mode charger going and ruined one of my batteries doing this. After changing out for the smart mode converter/charger have not seen any boiling out of lfuids since then.
I still check my batteries every couple or weeks or so just out of habit.
