I have been checking, and the prices of Bussman CB185-80 Surface-Mounted breakers are running around $30, plus or minus, depending on availability and quantity purchased. These are not auto-reset breakers, but since I installed the one in our rig seven or eight years ago, I have never had a need to reset it.



So, if there is any interest for me to do this, please respond to this post so I can order enough breakers in time before the rally. If someone already has a breaker or if one wants to purchase a breaker on their own, that is fine also. Just post that info so I can be prepared.

I'd have anyone interested be responsible to purchase their parts ahead of time, so you aren't getting stuck with a bunch of circuit breakers.
