Looks like a mis-print to me,...BTW if you're looking for an actuator,...there are usually a good variety on ebay

ya, good idea. I don't know if I need one yet. I'm going to pick up my new United Specialties rig on Monday. I know the 200 gallon tanks are under the bed. I didn't lift the bed up to look at the tanks when we went to look at it and buy it. Just thinking if there is any room under there to stow anything it might be cool to have it lift up electrically like that.

Oh no, that first picture looks like there is an inverter under the bed. That's not my coach. I think my inverter is in a underneath storage bin by the house batteries. I'll know more when I pick up on Monday. I don't even know if mine has an inverter.

Not much room in there once the tanks are there. Only the front panel by the head opens for access. You could probably rig it. The fuse box was in the end of the bed too on ours. Inverter is below bedroom in battery cabinet in drivers rear side, wall mount.
