I'm sure that many of you are familiar with RV 120VAC transfer switches that, for example, will allow an RVs 120 VAC appliances to be run from a shore power hookup over, say, an inverter connected to a house battery in the absence of such shore power availability.
Ok, sorry for the stupid question but is there something like this transfer switch only for strictly 12V DC appliances?
Imagine a bunch of 12V DC appliances in a vehcile that get charged off of a house battery, itself connected to solar. When the vehicle's engine cranks maybe I want those appliance's power to come from the alternator, or maybe, when the vehicle is parked I want those appliance's power to come from a 120VAC to 12V DC power supply I have hooked up.
...or maybe I'm just approaching this problem all wrong....
TIA
