I setup my controller inside the stash door. I attached it with velcro and run the connectors out of the bottom. I eventually plan to use the Zamp outlet or drill a small hole in the stash door.
They make 12v tvs with built in dvd players. They're a bit cheaply made but they cost less than the inverter.

These are nice and charge fast. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01BV1MTAA
And should work fine for your Switch. If the price is a bit much, there are these, which will charge slower:

There are these: https://www.amazon.com/Blue-Sea-Systems-Volt-Socket/dp/B004XIWF12
Which will allow you to plug in a 12v fan.

If it were me I'd replace all your bulbs with LED bulbs, I get mine here: https://www.superbrightleds.com/
That'll greatly reduce your current draw.
I have this solar panel: https://www.amazon.com/Renogy-Monocrystalline-Solar-Compact-Design/dp/B07GF5JY35 and this solar controller: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075NQQRPD
For a small system that solar controller can handle both the charging and monitoring the battery. It's also got bluetooth so you can monitor it over time, if you're a big nerd like I am.
I just designed and built the electrical system in my boat so this is all fresh in my mind.
Anything you add, be sure it's properly fused to protect the wire running to the device and that you're using the right size wire. This is the best place I've found to get wire and supplies for that: http://www.genuinedealz.com/
Hope all that helps.
