Leisure Products LR425 Water Heater Review

Works as advertised. The hardest part of the installation was routing the power cord inside the RV. I would like the thermostat to have more stable and closer thermal contact and/or isolation from ambient conditions as I use it regularly at -5°F and need to (easily) adjust the thermostat's set point. 425W is slightly less but electrically and thermally safer for a water heater. Supposedly I could fit the longer 625W element from the 10 gallon kit into my 6 gallon suburban water heater. But at…
