If that's all you need get yourself a 12v laptop adapter. So long as you aim to charge with the engine running no need for a second battery and see how you go.

And depending on your neighborhood....a spare safe. Those were my first two purchases before I'd even got my van. Not that I live in a rough area or anything! I just don't trust anyone.

As you probably already know the Swiss police are very efficient in preventing owners of camper vans enjoying some freedom, if you want a campervan stick to the campsites.
