i have a 2017 26’ Winnebago Ultralite pull RV.
I bought a macerator pump for my home RV hookup cause my sewer line is about 20” high.

I used it with my other rig which had a powered cig lighter.

How do I power up the pump with my Winnebago? It needs 12 volts and I see no power outside.

Thanks

I just made up a cable with a couple clamps like the second link above and connect directly to my house batteries. I don’t use it often but it comes in handy sometimes. I do like the connection in the first link above and might give that some thought. I could install one of those in the wet bay simplifying the proceedure.
 
For the bus, I hard wired the macerator in and looped a 12vDC toggle switch into the line. Mounted the toggle switch in the bathroom.

For the truck camper, I bought a 12vDC plug set and ran wires from the battery to the dump valve area. We have yet to need to use the macerator.

It wasn't a hard job to do for either.
