I have an older (at least 8 years old) Nicro solar vent on my forward hatch...it has a C cell rechargeable battery.....replaced the original battery last year....works 24-7 ....wouldn't be without it.

Ron,

I've only had them leak during a very heavy downpour. You need to find out if the leak is coming through the vent or around it. The solutions will be different. My aging Nicro vents have a C cell, rechargeable battery inside and run most of the night. Good ventilation, not great, but good.

Our main hatch- mounted solar vent seems to be solar only and runs great when the sun is on it. I don't know how old it is but its not new and am not sure what make it is. Problem is it drips with any rain or spray. Maybe a drip or two per minute. Even when in the slip. I can't tell where the leak is coming from exactly other than the vent - somewhere. IDK if the water is coming through the vent or around the seam where it is mounted. Is it worth remounting or should I replace it with something newer? Do others see this problem?

Ron
