Thanks. This provides some options I didn't know existed.

I decided to do a little exploring this morning. I am adding a couple more 12 volt outlets and considering hard wiring an inverter. I was curious what options I might have. This may help others who may be considering the same.
What I discovered with my 178: 1) 12 volt power bus on bottom of Pod just forward of stabilizer street (port) side. Nice! [edit: It's a short stop circuit breaker, not power bus] ![]() 2) Close by, 12 volt wires (green+white) running through floor into locker just froward of fridge ![]() 3) In locker mentioned above, removed panel covering 110 outlet. Noted wires (green+white) above entering and noticed 110 volt wire chase (channel) along outside wall. ![]() 4) Removed panel below draws and noted 110 volt wire run (above) exiting. Nice easy wire run. ![]() So, looks like one could easily tap the 12 volt bus below the pod, enter in the existing hole and run whatever along the street (port) side. Of course, it would require inline fuses for whatever you do run. I have a small 400 watt inverter now, but now I see wiring a larger inverter in that locker would not be difficult at all. I hope that helps and would be curious if anyone else has tapped that bus. fred |
