      Exactly. The van will have a 120 VAC outlet (female) - no more dangerous than any other outlet. The trailer will have a 'shore power' inlet connected to an automatic transfer switch (example). That should ensure there are no live male connectors.
      
      The motivation for considering Option 2 is having one less component. I realized that if I anyway have an inverter and a charger (which I will) then I don't need a DC-DC. But that reduction of components comes with an increase in complexity. Possibly if I go with Option 1 I'll spec a lower amperage for the 120->12V charger.

      Also...what need is there for a fuse in line with this or a power strip with a surge protector?

      I think that would depend on the yetti. It probably has a circuit breaker built in.

      Almost got it all lined up. Do you guys have a recommend outlets. I understand I need one GFCI in line. Would that be the first on in line from the Inlet?
