Is the cord in the coach hard wired so that you need to plug it in or are you looking for an adaptor to plug into a round 50amp receptacle on the outsid9e of the coach?

I think the confusion (and it might be me that's confused) I think the OP has a cord that he takes out of a bay to plug into a receptacle on the outside of his RV and then plug into the pedestal/house, and he wants to make a short/light weight cord just for use at his house to keep his batteries charged without always having to pull out and connect his big cord.
Most of us have the cord permanently attached in a bay and would just use a short, readily available, extension cord and the adapters left on the end of our big cord, but I think he wants to make a cord with a 15A male plug and a female plug on the other end that fits his RV receptacle.
Or am I all messegd up?

I was just out looking at 50 amp receptacles and noticed the 50/30 amp adapter won't plug into the motorhome because of the 50 amp twist lock. So now I can either buy a new adapter or a twist lock receptacle. Or am I missing something else?
So your MH has the twist lock connector? And you're looking to make up a cable from that to the outlet?
This revelation will change the responses, which so far have been assuming a 50 RV type cable end connection. The twist lock is not as common on MH's.
