Just completed a few mods.

Just finished some mods to the 5er. Actually a few were done at the end of last year.

First I added a exterior plug to tap into the 20 amp circuit on the campground pedestal.



Here is the plug on the inside.



Then I replaced the rocker switches with lighted rocker switches. Makes telling at a glance if they are switched on or not.



Then I put in a second 12 volt florescent under cabinet light.



Then I replaced the incandescent bulbs in the overhead lights with LED bulbs purchased off Ebay. Man are they bright!! Love it.



Finally I added a pair of computer fans to the refrigerator cooling fins to circulate the air inside. Purchased off Ebay also.



I think we are about ready to start a new camping season now. Just need to do the annual spring cleaning!!!! Just wanted to share, also I still can't believe how easy it was to add the LED bulbs. Happy camping, John

    I like the idea of the 20 amp plug. Might do that one myself.


    I must admit I copied that off of another member on here. But my wife, (bless her heart) would pop the breaker almost every time she would use her blow dryer. Well let me tell you that is now in the past. And it allows us to use a 2nd electric heater. Its all good now!!
