Using Tesla cig socket as power source to charge RV battery

I have a Tesla and would like to use the cig socket to charge my RV battery. The socket gives 15.5 volts and 12 amps continuous output. Is there a Victron product that I could use in the scenario?

why would you want to do that...?

your RV surely has solar or is parked near a electric outlet.

That's not much power. Victron has the Orion DC-DC charger but it's a little too much power for the socket.

Thanks Kevin, I was afraid of that. I think that a’ll actually go with a power station from Bluetti or Ecoflow. I can recharge it overnight form the Tesla, and use it during the day

I think I saw somewhere that you can buy an inverter that plugs in to your Tesla charging socket to give you a AC power outlet.
