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.
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…
Hey Michael! Since you were looking at the SoftStartRV Soft Start #SSR54FR are you wanting that built in as well? The Active Controls ActiveStart Plug-In Soft Start for RVs #AS94FR is a soft start and surge protector all in one. If you aren't…
Hey, Dan! Congrats on your new camper. Sounds like you’re good to go with the B&W Tow & Stow #BWTS20037B! Based on the dry weight being 7,600 lbs, I’m going to assume your trailer’s coupler has a 2-5/16" ball. The 2-5/16" ball on…

Hey Nathan, welcome back! The etrailer Invisible Base Plate Kit item #e98950 is exactly what you need for your 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee so long as yours isn't a SRT-8 or one of the Trackhawk models. For a compatible tow bar, I recommend 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?
Hey Chrystal! The Power Watchdog Surge Protector #HU47FR lacks the emergency shut down so we can rule that one out. The #HU87FR and #HU62VR both have the emergency shut down so the main difference is how they are monitored. If you're fine with…
Good thinking, Andy - good name btw. The Watchdog Surge Protector / Voltage Booster 50A #HU74ZR is a hefty unit, but it does sit outside at the pedestal, so security matters. It has a metal loop built in for a padlock or cable lock, which you can run…
Hey Donald, Nope! The Bluetooth/WiFi app is free to download and free to use with the portable Watchdog Surge Protector #HU42VR. There will be a QR code on the front of the surge protector that you simply scan and it will get you all set up. I have…
Hey Dennis! The brackets on the Valterra EZ Hose Carrier #A04-0155XBK are fixed in place on the tube and aren’t designed to be repositioned. Each bracket has a fixed mounting hole spacing of 5-1/4" on center as well. What kind of trailer are you…

RV surge protectors are essential for safeguarding your RV's electrical system from unpredictable power surges at campgrounds. They offer peace of mind by preventing costly damage to your appliances and electronics. Consider features like Bluetooth connectivity, repairability, and ease of installation when choosing the right one for your needs.
Look for features like easy installation, Bluetooth connectivity for monitoring, and the ability to replace parts instead of the whole unit. Some models offer valuable insights into power usage, helping you manage your electrical supply efficiently. Consider the weight and portability if you'll be moving it often.
RV surge protectors are designed to detect and shut down power during a surge, protecting your RV's electrical system. Some models, like the Watch Dog, allow you to replace just the circuit board after a surge, saving you money compared to buying a new unit.
Some surge protectors may produce a loud hum, which can be disruptive. It's also important to ensure compatibility with your RV's electrical system. Bluetooth connectivity can sometimes be tricky to sync, so check for models with reliable app support.
They provide peace of mind by protecting against electrical faults like reverse polarity. Bluetooth models offer real-time monitoring, alerting you to potential issues. This allows you to manage your power usage effectively, preventing tripped breakers and ensuring a smooth camping experience.
Repairable surge protectors save you money in the long run. Instead of replacing the entire unit after a surge, you can simply replace the damaged parts. This feature is especially valuable for frequent campers who want a cost-effective solution for long-term protection.
