It's when you drop below 108V you may have problems, especially with things like A/C units.
I didn't know that lol. I thought it was 110v and 115v was some weird thing... Thanks!

A lot of people also call it 120. It's all the same.
While there are a bunch of different voltages you may encounter in an industrial setting, for a home or RV, there are only two you need to worry about: 110/115/120 (standard outlets for almost anything) or 220/240 (high power outlets for ranges, dryers, etc.) While those are five different numbers, it's really only two different types of power.

If you plug your 115v nuke into your 110v outlet the carousel will spin counter-clockwise and it will freeze the food instead of cooking it.

Could be why it failed. Not being vented properly?
Just wondering. Was it the original factory installation by the RV manufacturer?

I measured the Old one when I pulled it out Kept the Trim Peices that anchored it into the Cabinet. Took My Tape measure to Target and Purchased a RED one that we liked and Installed it just like the existing one was, It has lasted longer than the Original one did.
