We very much like and enjoy our CampLite TC 6.8 truck camper. However, we’re now thinking we may want something a bit larger, especially considering our longer trips. The Lance 850 and 855S models look interesting, especially for a short-bed one-ton truck.

I understand that Lance uses a proprietary 6-pin connector on their truck campers to allow for cord sets with 8 AWG conductors for the +12 and common circuits.

How do you Lance owners adapt this cord set to your trucks’ 7-pin connectors? Did you just buy a 7-pin plug, attach it to the Lance cord, and then plug it into the truck? Or...?

Thanks!

I got an adapter from the Lance dealer, they made me a pig tail long enough to reach the 7 pin on the back hitch.

 

Thanks!

Safe travels,

Here is an explanation and description from Lance themselves. Part of it has to do with a heavier wire to care more current to the camper, but I'll let them be the experts. I had the dealership install it at delivery of our new 1062. The pics are ones I took of the male and female plug I took when our Lance 1062 arrived at the dealership in April.
