      Has anyone installed a 50 amp cord reel in their Cameo? If so, how? I installed a 12V water hose reel in the unit and it works great. I am open to all ideas. If anyone has a 50 amp cord reel that uses a 12v rewind motor they want to sell please let me know.

      This looks like the one from my Alfa. I took it out because it blocked a good amount of space in the road side storage bay doorway. It also took longer to retract the cord than if I manually coiled it and just laid the cord in the storage bay.

      Installation is simple…4 screws attach it to the floor. IIRC, all you need is a 12 volt power wire and a ground. Probably tap into power behind the wall where your water heater or utility connections are.

      Do you have a picture of where you install the hose reel?

      I have the same as remoandiris. Ours is mounted in the rear off door side storage hatch right next to the electric plug. Great mod to have. Really saves the back! Have another we bought for another unit that never got installed and thought about rigging it for water hoses.

      Mine was just inside the storage bay doors on the driver’s side of the trailer. Nothing special about the location. It was in my way, so I removed it.

      Yes I have pictures of my water hose install. I will post them under “Fresh Water Systems”. I have a solution to the 50 amp cord reel install (I hope). I will post pictures of it when I have finished with the install.
