Jim and listees,

Camping World and RVDirect have several different models of these
things, attaching by way of cigarette lighter or hardwired.

IMHO, be very wary of J.C. Whitney.  They have some good stuff, but also
have a lot of cheap Taiwan imitation stuff.  They're good about
refunding your money, but by the time you pay to ship the stuff back (or
it fails after 6 months instead the 5 years it ought to last), you could
have an expensive and frustrating experience.
