Hello fellow R-Podders Smile

We purchased an RPod last summer and due to family emergencies have not been able to use it yet.  We did however, say hello on here and got some great suggestions from several of you about what we need to do to protect our RPod before we go.  So it was highly suggested that we purchase a surge protector.  We bought a Progressive Industries Hardwired surge protector Model# EMS-HW30C.  We cannot figure out where in the world this is supposed to be installed on our 190.  We have torn the poor camper apart and do not see anywhere it should go!  Do any of you 190 owners know where this needs to be put??

Thanks so much for your help and advise.  We wave when we see you go by us on the road, and can't wait to meet you in the camp grounds.

I just wanted to say thank you so much for the installation guide! We couldn't put it in the same place, but we were able to get it installed under the sink, and it's working fantastic!!  We finally were able to take the house on wheels out for our 29th anniversary weekend to get away for the 1st time in 2 years.  Since it was our 1st time out, we had to figure out how everything works and boy was that a treat!  HA!  We ended up staying over night in an area that had 27 degree weather overnight and our water froze. It seemed fine by the time we got back home and can't find any leaks.  
ANYWAY... Long story... sorry..  Just really were excited to get out and can't thank you enough for your kindness with the link.  We wouldn't have been on the road without you. :)
Happy travels! Smile
