I would charge them together. Two chargers mean you have to disconnect/charge/reconnect the 2 packs each time. And the 2 packs must be at the same state of charge when paralleled.

Didn't know I could do that. I'm pretty rubbed in with residential electric in houses since I've remodeled homes for 20 years. But this dc/battery stuff throws me off. Can I leave the inverter hooked to along with the charger or should I buy 1 or 2 disconnects?

As long as the inverter has an ON/OFF switch, you can leave it connected. Make sure you fuse the battery output.
