Never thought about using something, until DD sent me a pinterest pick of a bucket with holes for cord to go through and connection underneath. I think I may make one out of some type smaller container, as I have recently decided that rain on my extension cord/rv cord connection may have caused some problems. Unplugged TT to leave on 10 day Christmas trip and had a hard time separating connection. I just thought I was weak and plug end was small and hard to grab. On the overnight during return trip, I had to use extension cord to plug in and leave TT hooked to truck. It rained overnight, and when I went to disconnect, I could not get plug to come out of extension cord. My son, who was on trip with me, ended up pulling the end of extension cord apart to get plug out. It looked like plug was melted into extension. I blamed it on lighter/smaller replacement plug after cord had to be replaced during summer. I am now thinking rain on plug may have been responsible.
Prior to leaving, TT had been plugged into extension cord for approx 2-3 months. I had stayed in TT several times during that time and all electrical stuff worked as best as I could tell. After destroying the extension cord during my trip, I talked to dealer and he was going to check power draw for trailer, but now I am really thinking rain water may have been cause of my problems. Replace plug on trailer and replace receptacle on extension cord and then keep out of rain should have me ready to go again.
