Can a battery charger be powered from an inverter so the system can generate 115Vac, and charge the battery at the same time without shore, or generator power being connected?
No, the inverter, wiring, and charger all waste power as the current is moved around the system loop resulting in quickly discharged batteries. Batteries must be charged from an external source of energy such as an engine alternator, shore powered battery charger, fuel or wind powered generator operating a battery charger, or solar panels.
