See level gauge panel placement 30'

Calling all 30 footers with see level systems. Where did you place the control panel and why?
 I see two possible locations. 1 easier than another.  Above the solar controller and into the padded side of kitchen cabinet  Wondering what others have done.

 Mike Sylvester installed mine one year at the Balloon Fiesta. I asked him to place the monitor panel just to the left of the LD monitor panel, in that small space to the right of the microwave. It's very unobtrusive there and quite handy. Mike ran the wires through a small pvc conduit in the corner to the left of the kitchen window, behind the sink.

Hope that helps.

Ours is between the microwave and the range hood, fits perfectly and is easy to access.

Thanks y'all!
 That is great news.  I didn't think it was that small a panel.  It would be immensely handy and accessible there.

Tim Pease installed our See Level gauges before he left So.  Cal.  The readout panel is just below the solar control panel,  and both of them are right around the corner from the freezer, so they're both  to the left as you enter the coach.

I don't have a 30 foot, but my SeeLevel II monitor panel is placed where I can see it through the open entry door.  This is convenient for filling the fresh water tank; I can just look in and see how it's going.  It's also useful when using a Flush King to flush the gray or black tank.  I really don't want to overflow the tank, so it's nice to be able to see how full the tank is.

SeeLevel II can support two monitor panels.  I thought about having one inside and one out in one of the bays.  I decided against it because of cost and complexity, but it's an attractive option.
