The Honda does have a built-in 12 v battery charger which you can still use to charge the 2 - 6 volts (just make sure you hook it up correctly to the batteries) so you really don't need a separate 10 amp charger. I think the Honda puts out about 8.5 amps DC charge - not that much less than your 10A charger.

Any idea how many amps the converter charges the batteries at?
Here are the specs on my converter!
Output Power : 55 amps DC output
Input : 190-260 VAC, 50 Hz (950 watt)
Output Ranges : - Nominal (Absorption Mode) 13.6 Vdc (includes charging and load)
- Boost (Bulk Mode) 14.4 Vdc
- Trickle (Float Mode) 13.2 Vdc (after 48 hrs.)
