Winegard RV-7042 White Wall Plate Power Supply

I got this to replace a single antenna amplifier switch in my 2013 Roadtrek Motorhome. My sole interest was to have a 12 volt outlet that was using juice from the house batteries vs. the starting battery. I removed the old amplifier plate, simply hooked in the existing 12 volt clip on wires from the replaced amplifier to this new one with a 12 volt outlet....I even took it a bit further cause there was a separate A/B switch to switch between the roof antenna and a cable hookup and another small box that was a splitter. This one unit not only replaced 3 units, but allowed me to get more space in the AV cabinet (space is always at a premium in small motorhomes) and have a cleaner looking installation. I did not have to buy anything additional other than one of those female 2 sided cable connector that allowed me to simply use the existing cable behind the wall of the motorhome and I only had to fish it maybe 6 or 8 inches with a piece of wire hanger. Basically it took me longer to write this review than install the unit. Now I have a 12 volt house battery outlet for my CPAP machine and do not need to use the inverter all night...I could not understand why Roadtrek did not use this set up in the first place cause likely it is less costly and takes less installation labor than the original 3 separate unit set up that accomplishes precisely the same thing but excludes a very usable 12 volt outlet drawing from the house batteries. After a test it all worked perfectly. It is almost impossible to screw up this installation, but no doubt some will be successful achieving the impossible and they will be the ones who give this unit a one star review.

Super easy to replace the old one.

Nice working

Worked great for fixing the bad one in my camper

The power plate looks good and was easy to install but was made different , on the back ,than my old one in my RV so I had to reshape the opening in my wall with a rasp to make it fit , otherwise I would give it five stars Yes I would buy again

The little pushbutton switch failed on my original and would not stay in antenna setting. This one plugged right in with no problems. I can see a few trivial differences like markings, so it's not 'new old stock' but all the connectors are same type/same location. Hopefully the little switch got an upgrade in the process.

I bought my Jayco 22FB brand new at the end of 2010. It's a 2010 model that was on clearance. Here it is 4 years later (at the beginning of this summer - first camping trip) and my antennae wouldn't work. When I took the outlet out I quickly discovered why. There was corrosion all over the back of the thing, on the circuit board and all over the connections. I could see moisture on the inside of the walls. Jayco did a poor job of insulating inside there so the moisture was from condensation. You can see the inside of the siding. You should see nothing but insulation. So I bought this "Winegard RV-7042 White Wall Plate Power Supply" from Amazon (Which by the way was considerably less expensive than the RV dealership. I installed this with one modification. I applied liquid electrical tape all over the back of it after I made my connections and then reinstalled it. Hopefully that will prevent corrosion from the condensation. My thoughts: Campers are whipped together and built fairly cheap. So I believe that anyone could easily run into the same problem I did. If this happens to me again I will look into a better fix for the condensation. No fault of this product though.

Worked with antenna. Would have rated higher but for the price I may have been better off replacing the antenna with one that didn't need this unit.

Worked great, and easy replacement
