then the only question would be to use a large enough (amp capacity) relay. I would also make sure the relay was rated as "continuous duty" and not intermittent duty

the relay would allow the leisure battery to charge when the engine is running.

since the switch is between the "main" battery and "leisure" battery, the leisure battery will not get charged by the vehicle charge system and will be able to be run down by the inverter.

Maybe the negatives should be connected and not running through Earth?

Fact of the week
Bluetooth is named after the 10th-century Viking king, Harald Bluetooth, who united warring tribes in Denmark and Norway. In 1997, Jim Kardach from Intel gave the name to the technology because of its ability to unite different communication protocols, just as Harald united various tribes.
