Can a small power inverter be plugged into a 12 volt outlet?

Some small power inverters are equipped with DC power cords with plugs that can be plugged into a 12 volt vehicle outlet. Some have a cord set that have battery clips identified as Positive (Red color) and Negative (Black color). Some small inverters have two cords supplied; one with a plug and one with battery clips. 12 Volt Outlets

Should I use a 12v socket if I have an inverter?

Power delivered to an appliance directly from a 12V socket is a far more efficient use of your battery power than using an inverter to pump your 12V DC power up to 230V AC, and then have the electrics in the connected appliance scale it back down to the required low internal DC voltage. If a 12V power option is available, always use that option.

Can a 48V inverter and battery share a common chassis ground?

I've read that the isolated charger can't share a common chassis ground, yet 48v inverters and batteries in a vehicle must be grounded to the vehicle chassis. Why is it that the 48v inverter and batteries can share a common chassis ground with the 12v starter battery, but not the Victron 12/48 isolated charger?
