The inverter does not charge. The inverter provides 120v to your coach off of the batteries, now you may have a charger/inverter but these are 2 completely different items. While plugged in the charger will take care of your batteries, if all you have is a converter it is essentially your charger and provider of 12v power for your coach, it gets that from being plugged into 120v. Hence it converts 120ac to 12v dc. to charger batteries. Sounds confusing but just think of the names, invert goes 12v dc to 120ac.
So to confuse you more, you could charge from your inverter but what would really be happening is you are running your charger from your inverter to convert back to 12v. Its a perpetual cycle that wont last. The inverter is always using power to run itself and you will be on a downhill slide.
