Yes, exactly.  When it separates the voltage on the input spikes back to 14+, then when it combines the voltage drops again!

Sounds like you will need to upgrade the wiring from camper to truck battery.  rando's suggestion of a DC-DC charger is good as well, but I suspect you will need heavier gauge wire either way.
