We're looking at the same issue and are considering tapping our 160amp alternator for some 12 volt power to run an inverter then using the inverter to run a normal 110VDC charger for our 48V lithium battery bank.
This gives us the capability of charging while driving but also to unplug the charger from the inverter and connect it to any power source. Grid, genset, another skoolies 110, etc.
This would provide an emergency backup system should our main inverter/charger go out. A cheap (true sine wave) inverter could bybass the main inverter and provide power to run the fridge and minimal 110 necessities (phones/tablets for instance) while awaiting repair.
Just another way to skin the cat
