My 2 cents ...

Since technology already exists, we'd have to guess it's cost. Most buyers aren't very technical, so manufacturers would have to supply a large battery bank and safeguards to keep owners from killing the batteries in short order. That would add even more cost.

For what it's worth, some higher-end Class Bs are being designed with inverter/chargers and built-in transfer switches. It's not unusual for them to run the air conditioner for a few hours off batteries using the inverter. It just takes money.
