Your WF 5110 is an inverter only and does not have any charging capability, nor is it a DC power supply.
You likely have the 7355 Power center that includes your converter at the bottom below the circuit breakers and fuses. It will be a single stage and yes they are widely known to overcharge batteries (and even undercharge)
You could install a cut off switch but that will leave you with no charging or DC power except your batteries. A much better option is the 4 stage Progressive Dynamics 4655V (with remote) upgrade for your Parallax and you will see immediate improvement. They are generally DIY upgrades and not difficult at all to install with very basic skills. Good luck.
