Congrats on the new trailer! I recommend the Portable Power Watchdog Surge Protector with Bluetooth, WiFi, and Emergency Shut Down - 50 Amp item # HU62VR over item # HU92VR because of it's ability to automatically turn back on once the power stabilizes. This feature alone is worth going with the upgraded model especially if you plan on being away from your trailer for an extended period of time.
