I recently picked up a class A motor home. The circumstances of the sale were unusual and have left me with very little in the way of orientation and I am hoping I can find some support among the FMCA family. I am wondering about how inverters charge the batteries. I have a 4000-watt inverter whose sole purpose is to operate the one of the rooftop A/Cs. That inverter has no other function and nothing else hooked up to it. So that one seems simple enough. The other inverter is the main inverter for the coach with a remote panel. I understand that I must be hooked up to shore power, or running the generator, but If I am using the inverter, by pushing the "invert" button will it also charge the batteries or must I push the "charge" button? How can I tell if the batteries are charging?
