It would be an 'inverter' - to change 12vDC to 110vAC...
There are portable (plug in to cig lighter) and hardwired model. What you need depends on what you want to run...
Determine the load of what you want plugged in - everything should have watts listed on label - or multiply volts * amps... That will tell you how many watts you need in the inverter.

Higher watts will drive to a hardwired model. Lower watts you will have a choice.

Since your coach batteries should be charged by alternator when driving down the road - battery capacity shouldn't be an issue.

Search '12v inverter' on Amazon for some ideas.
