Alright, currently I have just a standard 1500w inverter. My outlets in the truck split, and one connection plugs into the front of the inverter, and the other to the shore power plug controlled from the outside plug. So, when I'm plugged in, I have to unplug the connection in the inverter.
So, now I'm going to get an APU. I want to be able to charge my batteries with that, but also when I use the shore power plug from outside.
So, is there a way to keep my current inverter, and just add a battery charger. But then how do I get the outlets out of this split connection setup, and get them plugged into either the charger or the inverter in a way I don't have to keep disconnecting one plug or the other depending on if I'm on shore power, or battery power?
And of course my APU I'm thinking will have it's own control panel, then do I need an additional control panel for the inverter or charger?
Or lastly, is the easiest solution to break down and get an all-in-one inverter/charger solution? (at which point I will just have septate control panels just because of my own preference...)
Can't wait to see some thoughts on this.
