    but you will love the hunter. its well worth the effort. I grabbed one at walmart. It needs to be one that runs on batteries.
    The model numbers vary widely I guess by which store your in. My model number wasn't the same as his.
    But if you contact Tom, he can send you in the right direct better than I can.



    Thinking about using a Rite Temp 8035C. Thank you again. Next to research is a fire place. Off I go. lol!

      I'd have to look to see which model mine is. But theres an extra wire and you'll have to add a toggle switch of some sort for the high low speed .... I never added one to mine and it stays on low and still cools the place just fine even in 100+ heat.



      Why thank you sir. I have got work to do with many ideas. I mentioned to Tater and wish everybody included model numbers with the stuff they add. Then an old portagie like me would stop asking questions. Thank you again for all your help.

        I made a frame to go under my slide topper. made it out of pvc pipe. glued what I could, left the middle so could take it apart and also left the legs clean so I could fold them flat with the frame. Takes up about as much room as a small beach lounger.

        Heres a link to a pic of it. if you look in the Gallery and then click on the DIY gallery you'll see about 3 pic's I have of it.

        some people put a beach ball under it and stuff like that , but with the frame I don't have to worry about it blowing away in a strong storm. Stay's tight and no water collects at all.

        Again I say thank you for the info. As I looked thru your pictures I see a Thermostat. Did you list that in the blog somewhere? Neat unit.

          Sry not me but it is is a good one. Good old John Dear. Thank you for the reply. I will have to look then up. Have found nothing I like out here. I like to work on the WC in the winter but the big slide topper collects so much water worries me. They use to make a topper that did not. Carefree carried it but deleted it. Again thank you for the reply

            Can I ask where you got that cover for the Wicked Kitty? It appears wide enough for the slides to open which is what I need.
