There's a whole community of people who live in their RVs, and they have some innovative solutions that allow them to run off the batteries, and simultaneously charge the batteries from a variety of sources using solar, generator, or shore power.
I don't think they're cheap, though. But they look fairly easy to set up and very flexible. Check out youtube or google RV power systems.
