Hello Kevin, Thanks for writing in. The main difference between the Power Watchdog Surge Protectors #HU67FR and #HU42VR comes down to the monitoring capability, housing design, and surge protection rating. The #HU67FR is the newer Generation 2 model.…
Hey Paul! The PullRite SuperGlide #PUL43RR (2714) and #PUL73RR (2914) do weigh the same. The main difference is the capacity, which is going to come from the base of the 5th wheel hitch. Since your 2027 Keystone Cougar 316RLS has a GVWR of 12,900 lbs…
Welcome back Anthony! The Curt parts you were looking at are compatible with your Silverado and each other but I recommend the B&W Companion OEM 5th Wheel Hitch w/ Slider item #BWRVK3775. The B&W Companion w/ Slider item #BWRVK3775 is one of…
Hi Kelvin, you can absolutely use the Power Watchdog without WiFi or Bluetooth. Models like the 50 amp #HU62VR and the 30 amp #HU32VR will still provide their surge protection and electrical monitoring as soon as you plug them in, so you are not…
Hi Roy, Yes, the 30 Amp Portable Power Watchdog #HU32VR will protect your RV from sustained low voltage as well as power spikes and high voltage. If the incoming voltage drops to 104 volts or below, or climbs to 132 volts or higher, the watchdog face…
Hey George, yes we do have a rain cover for the Watchdog Power Center part #HU74ZR with the part #HU88FR.Did you have the previous generation Watchdog?
Hey Ed, congratulations on the new motorhome! For a surge protector I would stick with the Watchdog models from Hughes Autoformers. These are nice because the surge model can be replaced if you actually experience a surge instead of replacing the…
Hey Emily, the Blu Technology RV Pressure Regulator #GB97FR uses the standard 1/4 inch quick disconnect size that is the same as what you would see on an air compressor. Do you have a compressor you could compare to the larger size you have?
Hello Greg, thanks for reaching out. You are on the right track looking at the 21' fabric and roller kits. The Replacement Roller and Fabric Kit for 21' Solera Power and Hybrid RV Awnings #LCV000211532 you were looking at does not have a…
Hey Caleb, I would strongly recommend going with an offset hitch ball like the Gen-Y part #GY83XR which will give you an additional 5 inches of offset and will do a great job giving you additional turning clearance. Short bed trucks can do a decent…
Thanks for letting us help Rob. There's no issue with using your Hughes Watchdog Power Center Surge Protector and Voltage Booster #HU74ZR along with a built-in Hughes Watchdog EMS. Some of the protection features will be redundant, but the two…
Hey David, do you mean to cut the plug off of the Watchdog Power Center Surge Protector and Voltage Booster #HU74ZR and then wire it to your RV outlet? If so, it would be just a matter of cutting and stripping wires to pull this off.
Wow! I placed my order late on a Friday afternoon and when I get to work this AM my I have confirmation that my order has already shipped. Thanks for the great service.
Go for a permanent setup with hardwired RV surge protectors that live inside your rig and stay out of the weather. Options with Bluetooth and WiFi app monitoring make it easy to spot voltage issues, and emergency shutoff helps protect your appliances. Pick 30 amp or 50 amp to match your RV; a 50 amp unit can run from a 30 amp source with an adapter.
Yes, a replacement surge protection module is available for Gen 2 50 amp hardwired units. Match the generation and amperage when ordering to ensure compatibility. Keeping a compatible spare can minimize downtime if a module needs to be swapped.
Yes, a 50 amp hardwired unit can be used on a 30 amp power source with a 30-to-50 adapter. Plug in with the converter at the pedestal and it will work correctly. Confirm correct wiring before energizing and manage your load since 30A limits available power.
Yes, models with emergency shutdown cut power when voltage goes out of range. A short start delay helps confirm steady power before restoring it, which can reduce appliance stress. Watch the indicator for clear status and use the app to review alerts before turning loads back on.
They let you monitor power from your phone for convenience and peace of mind. You can see issues like low voltage on one leg, view live power draw, and check fault codes. This makes it easier to verify campground power and share details if something looks off.
Installation is generally straightforward for RVs. Check the coach cord diameter and the opening; you may need to adjust the opening for a clean fit. Plan the output run to the transfer switch and use appropriately rated cable. Verify instructions are included and test at home before your first trip. If upgrading from an older version, allow a moment for updates.
