Surge Protector problem

I have a new Progressive Industries portable surge protector for my RV. Model number SSP-50XL. My problem is that I need to mount the weather cover on it and I’ve apparently thrown the mounting screws away with the box. So I need to replace the screws. Does anybody have any idea what size screw I need to replace them?

Many thanks!

Simple enough to just take it to the hardware store, go to the bulk fastener aisle and find a screw that fits.

If I can ask, why just a surge protector and not an EMS?

EMS will protect you from more than a surge protector:

You should be able to find the screws you want at any hardware store..

The unit you bought is "Better than nothing" but the one I would have bought is this one...

Yes it cost a lot more... One nearby lightening strike or an under/over voltage surge and the EMS unit would pay for itself.
