I figured there would be some easy way to change the power selector switch in such a way that no cords would be needed since the bus is already plugged into the house. I don't mind changing the bus components in order to do this . Seems like it would be possible. How would I run cords from the bus? Wouldn't cords be very limited in the amount of current available? Im interested in getting all 12.5 kw to the house. Thanks RObert --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, PDMcCripe@... wrote: > > All things are possible.
