outside 12 v power port

hillbillyhotel · 09-17-2013, 05:30 PM

ok after reading a couple diff. threads, it got me to thinking.
Like others i also have an extra sure flow water pump for filling water tank from jugs,just ran the wires to a battery,
why not an outside 12 volt power outlet? just added it below fridge , lots of power access there,
also going to add one to the curb side, for the items we and the grandkids carry with us that can use the 12 volt power.
just picked up a water-proof one made for boats,and mounted under the edge

I like it. Another mod before the first vacation.

Randy, I've had problems with the rubber weather plug staying in on boat style 12 volt outlets. For the curb side I did away with the T.V. connector and installed my 12 plug in there. With weather cover over the boat plug don't seem to have problems with rubber plug coming out.

Did the same curb side with a motorcycle add-on that has a heavy, hinged cover that will not come off. Works like a charm. I was saving the cable outlet for something else that ended up not happening, so for the moment I have a "hole" behind that flap. I stuck mine under the TM between the step and the wheel, and I plug in a long, long extension cord so that I can have 12V in my screen room (fan, light). Makes for a very nice set up!

I guess that's why I make so few rallys. Get a complex seeing all the work folks do to make things better. I just tried to think ahead when I got my TM's to ask for things to be done before I picked it up. LOL

We are looking forward to our first rallies--Fletcher, NC (10/11) and Tybee Island, GA (10/18) for the very that we will see first-hand some of the great mods.
