Anyone know who makes the lights for the rPod's?  There are lot of them available on Amazon but I would like to get an exact replacement.  If I go thru FR it may take a while as there ordering is back logged.

I used these and they were identical.

Water in anything is a bad sign -

Mine have the push button in the center so don't think those are the ones.  Thanks.

Click on the different picture of the lights, some of them have switches and some don't. And there are two different sizes. I ordered the ones that were the right size with switches  and they are identical.

Thanks didn't see the different versions when I first looked.  I looks like they are the 3.5 inch ones but I will need to measure.....out camping with no tape measure.  Thanks again.

I replaced the lens on one of my puck lights with the lens from this:

The current image on Amazon's website doesn't show the switch, but the ones I got had the center button.

These lights worked:
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075KNHTQ1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1  - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075KNHTQ1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I had the 3.5 inch ones.  They aren't exactly like to old ones but close enough.  So I have the light repaired and the skylight is temporarily fixed until I can get a replacement.  I want to see what FR charges for it as there are lots of replacements available with the exact dimensions. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B075KNHTQ1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1  -

Take a look at FanTastic fans, not the cheapest but far superior to low-grade RV fans. They move alot of air, are quiet, and reversible with 3 speeds.

The fan isn't the problem it is the skylight in the shower.

If your skylight in the shower has a fan like mine, the fan is useless (except as a  noisemaker). The FanTastic  units are fan/skylight combos. If you just want to replace the skylight, try Amazon or eTrailer.com. Should be a fairly universal item (famous last words, I know).

I have a rPod 189 and there is no fan in the skylight that is in the shower.  My fan is in the toilet area seperate from the skylight and I think it is a FanTastic.

Ah - the 179 that I have is a combined unit.

I have that skylight in my 196 so I know what you're talking about. What happened to it that it broke?

Might I suggest that you go into your account settings and add a signature that indicates your Pod model and, optionally, your tow vehicle? Knowing the model makes identifying issues much easier.

From what I can see they probably overtightened the screws that hold it in place.  Since it is bedded with sealant the screws don't need to be that tight as the sealant will hold it.  It cracked in several places where the screws were.  I will be more careful when I install a new one.  Also I am going to use eternabond around it after I install it......should prevent any leaks.
