After some further research I am going to retract my prior statement.

Contrary to what I was told by a Thor rep at a show and by the dealer it appears my coach does charge the house batteries when the engine is running.

Here is the quote from page 93 of the 2015 Challenger owners manual

"The auxiliary batteries are recharged by the power converter when the motorhome is attached to an outside 120 volt power source, or by the generator when it is running, and by the chassis alternator when the chassis engine is running."

Note: although the manual is listed on Thor's site as a 2015 Challenger manual the front cover says it is generic to all Class B, C and A motor homes. It is a different manual than the one I was provided when I bought the coach.

Sorry of any confusion.

Sorry for any confusion.
