Charging The Battery

I really don't want to go over to Testosteroneville, and I just know you guys will have the answer...

Say I'm boondocking for a period of time and need to charge my battery, using my Honda EU1000i generator.

Is it more efficient to charge the battery (single, group 27, I think) using the trailer's built in converter thing, or use a free-standing battery charger (like you'd use for a car)??

I THINK I recall over on rv dot net (several years ago) that it was more efficient to use a charger, but I'm not sure.

Anyone know for sure...(carrying a car charger is more weight and something else to schlepp around).

This is one of those, each side disagrees things. Very few actually carry the charger, so I'm guessing that using your system to do it is what the majority do. I wouldn't add the weight.
