bedroom electrical outlet

Ozz I saw your post on changing out your bedroom electrical outlet. Great pictures by the way thanks. And that got me to thinking. On the outside of our 5'ers Awning side, we have 1 electrical outlet. Have you or anyone else on here added a second or 3rd outlet outside? and if so how? If you haven't, where would you if you did?

I needed an outlet at the front of my rig. I have a handicap scooter that needs charging from time to time. I store it under the overhang to protect it from the weather. A couple of years ago Mel and Bob installed an outlet for me. It has worked great. Sorry I don't have any pictures but it is just a regular waterproof outlet. Dennis

Yes, I added one under the overhang, as well as about 6 others. Here are a few:

Ozz, if we're ever parked next to each other, the whimpering and begging noises, outside your rig, are going to be me hoping to get your help on some mods

May not happen this spring, but given the opportunity at some point in the future I will happily take you up on it.

What breakers are you getting for the electrical panel and where are you getting them for your outlets? I need to change my current basement set up.

Hi Jim,
On mine, I had unused power from the dryer 20 amp circuit, so I used that. I put in a two-pole breaker for my dryer, I installed a 220 Maytag dryer in mine. You can get the thinline breakers at Home Depot (at least on my model, some panels may be different) PM me if you have any specific questions I can help you with.

On most trailers, the panel is a Square D Homeline. Look at your existing breakers to make sure.
