I have just installed 2 Anderson plugs on my van and car. Question; How do I waterproof the rear end (cable entry) of the plug? I was thinking of using neutral cure silicon but that can be messy. I have the covers for the plug in end so they should be water proof. Alan

12 volt fan for van
(Preview)
Anybody have some recommendations. Endless Breeze and Sirocco all around $150 to $160. Why does 12 volt seem to increase the cost? We have plenty of 12 volt van points and would probably have a relocatable fan.
