outlets in the whitehawk 25bhs?
I only saw 1 power outlet in the bedroom of this unit, but can't believe that's right- does anyone know for sure if there are more?

I have 10 total 120v outlets in my 27DSRL. I would think that the 25bhs would have several outlets.

IIRC you should have one each side of the bed support ( framing ) ?

I just checked our 2015 25BHS and it has the following 120 VAC outlets:
1) One in the bathroom,
2) One on the lower kitchen cabinet by the door (GFCI),
3) One on each side of the bed platform, and,
4) One inside the storage area to the left of the stereo (behind drop down door).
There is also a 12 VDC outlet (cigarette lighter plug) in the storage area to the left of the stereo. I was pleased to find this one because I may eventually buy a 12 volt TV.

Outlets in Whitehawk
Wondering, are all the outlets on the same circuit? Our Flagstaff has several outlets but all on same circuit, it is sure easy to overload if you have a heater going, then start a couple more small items. Hope the Whitehawk on my wish list has more circuits than one.

Yes, they are all on one 15 amp circuit breaker.

Give consideration to the fact that 15 amps is one half your total available of 30 amps.
Micowave, a/c or water heater might use the other 15 amps available.

During a recent week-long trip to a campground with shore power we discovered that none of our 120 volt outlets worked except for the GFCI outlets.
We took the TT back to the dealership and using a circuit tester they discovered that every non-GFCI outlet was wired wrong at the connection points behind the power panel. It took them over 3 hours to correct the problem while we waited.
As we were checking each outlet after the repairs, I asked the tech if all of the outlets on that circuit are daisy chained with pigtails. He said, no, they are all home runs back to the power panel. That surprised me but I'm glad they are because I now know there are no connections in each run that may come loose from the vibrations while traveling.

I hate to say it but I don't believe their all home runs. You better check the panel yourself. I hope I'm wrong on this .

I agree, Tunce, but I don't plan to do any repairs while it is under warranty so my verification will have to wait.
By the way, my wife's brother and his wife live in Bellingham - beautiful place.

Your 100% right. They are not all home runs one continuous piece of wire. However the outlets are not screw connections either they are knife connections (for lack of a better term) similar to the 12volt splice connections and they are a b...ch to pull apart.

I have (8) 15 amp outlets in my TT inc. My outside outlet but I only have 3 circuits in my panel box for them. Take your cover panel off and count them to be sure. It's a good idea to know what lines go to what outlets.
We really like Bellingham but the rain is a little much. I live off Euclid and next to Lake .

Yeah, you can see in this photo that there is only one black wire going into each breaker so they are not home runs unless there is a sub-panel behind the main panel. Actually there may be because the tech said they had to remove the inverter/converter to access the connections.
Her brother & his wife live on 16th Street.

16th st.is a great location, you can walk into town. There's always something going on,great college town and it keeps us young. Lots of good evening places to hangout in in winter and in spring into late fall many outside places.

No hidden sub-panel. That's against code. The converter and panel are an integral unit, but usually no reason to remove it except to access the extra slack in the wiring.

Homer, I don't understand your post. Are you complaining about my post? If so, please explain in plain English.
Thanks,
Ken

Okay, I think I now understand that you are complaining about Jayco's advertising and their quality (or lack thereof) control. Right?
