Pat,
What do you mean by house batteries? By chassis batteries do you mean the one outside feeding the camper/rv 12v lighting? I have hookup to 115vac so use 12v switching power supply instead of direct to 12v battery. The solar panel is a great idea. I have a small one for trickle charging, maybe I'll hook it up and try it although the WFCO unit floats the battery pretty well (just too much RFI).
