Can you use this in-line with a surge protector? If so does it go surge protector - soft start - camper or soft start - surge protector- camper?

Hey Alan, yes you can use the Active Controls ActiveStart Plug-In Soft Start for RVs # AS44FR with a surge protector. You would want it to go surge protector, soft start, and then to your camper so that the soft start also has surge protection basically.
