Mods I did while on vacation this week.

Installed a rope light and switch(120v) in the pantry. Built a larger, deeper medicine cabinet with the 2 top shelves slightly tilted back, so the stuff doesn't fall out when opened. Put elastic straps on bottom shelf to retain bigger items. Screwed a stainless soap dish to the wall to hold the automatic soap dispenser. Installed a small fan (with filter) on the breaker box compartment to help cool breakers and converter down when we run every appliance in the RV at on time.

The pantry lights are cool. I hate a dark cabinet. Makes it hard to get stuff or organize.

Great work! I like all of them but the fan mod for the converter box is really nice! Is it hard wired to be on all the time or is that toggle switch the on off button? How is it wired to the box?

Agree with all on the great mods - especially the plastic strips in the med cabinet - good idea!

Love the mods.... Is that a CPU cooler fan for the breaker box cooling mod? Never thought of using one of those for that LOL

It's a 12v CPU fan. There was a gas detector there before that kept going off because of all the Lysol and hair spray coming from the bathroom. I replaced it with a larger one that wouldn't fit in the same place, so I relocated it on the panel below the stove. This left a few holes and wires hanging out at the old spot, so I just cut the wire hole bigger(used a 1 3/4" hole saw), screwed the fan on using the old screw holes(got lucky with them lining up), and used the wires that were powering the detector. Also installed a black toggle switch above the fan. After that, I decided it needed to look better, so I attached a small air filter I found at Walmart using Velcro.
