@fuzzypinkbunny- We were just talking about swapping out the city water connection.  Ours periodically becomes loose, and with it so accessible in the CS-S we are thinking a metal connection v plastic might help.  Would love to hear details.

@Michigan_Mike - had just started talking about it... Hadn't gotten to the looking part.  This IS a full service forum!  Reads your mind and helps before you even ask!  Thanks!

No problem!  

According to one review this fixture was priced over $60 at West Marine and half the cost through Walmart's site. It looks pretty nice (I like the chrome) and I'd be curious if it would mount to the T@B since my trailer isn't here for reference?

It says it is rated at 65 PSI. I thought the normal recommendations was to regulate at 50 PSI. Is that enough difference to be a concern?

We would still use our pressure regulator... We just need the metal connector.

I believe this is the manufacturer's spec sheet for this product.  It regulates to 65 PSI, not 50 PSI.  Max. inlet pressure is noted as well.

When you view that PDF note the graph shows two different models.
183-X2X-0X is 50 PSI.
183-X2X-1X is 65 PSI.

When I open that PDF from that link, it shows a water system diagram in English and French. There were no part numbers shown. Perhaps the link has changed. The Pentair ShurFlo catalog PDF shows all versions of the wall mount water entry product as regulating at 65 psi. The only 50 PSI product is an inline device 183-039-08.
