Thank you.

Correction, I used Stainless tube.

Does anyone know if there are other manufacturers of 4 into 1 besides AWS and Sky Dynamics? My bit of looking has not been successful. I don't need one right this minute but if one was available I would seriously consider purchasing it.

Quick update....

I really like the cable hangers, as compared to the bent tube and hose contraptions on most RVs. Light, compact, simple, but of course I've been curious about how long they might last. Well, I finally broke one. It took 1100+ hours.

I have a crimper, cable stops, and cable. 10 minute fix.
