How can I charge 18v dewalt Nano with Deep cycle Marine Battery?

I have a trailer which is outfitted with kyocera 85w solar panels, morning star sun saver controller and a 75amp 12v deep cycle battery. It also has LED lighting which is visible in the photo. My questionL Is there anything on the market to charge a 18v nano dewalt battery using only the 75 amp deep cycle battery?

Is this possible? The idea is to make the trailer self sustainable and be able to charge the cordless batteries in a pinch.

Thanks,

Picture of the trailer.

DeWalt has a charger which is designed to plug in to the a cigarette lighter to charge the 18-volt DeWalt batteries. I have one which came with one of the kits and have used it when working on my farm. I replaced the cigarette plug with some large spring clips (one red one black) so I can connect it to the battery on my tractor. This saves me from running back to the barn to swap batteries on my rechargeable tools when used far from the house or barn.

You can probably get away with using a power inverter rated at a minimum or 400W continuous along with the stock dewalt charger.

And an inverter can power other small things, like laptops, stereos, chargers for other types of batteries etc.
