  • Replacement Module For Portable Power Watchdog Surge Protector 50 amp
    Hello Ron. First off Congrats on the 5th wheel! Also, I am glad that you found us so we can help you along the way while you are out there making everlasting memories! The Portable Power Watchdog Surge Protector with Bluetooth, WiFi, and Emergency Shut Down - 50 Amp # HU62VR is an awesome unit to have to keep the electrical components of your 5th wheel protected. We currently do not have the replacement module listed on our site. I have already reached out to Watchdog to get the information...

  • What Is The Purpose Of A Soft Start Start Capacitor And Should There Be One On Each AC
    Hi Jeff, A start capacitor/soft start is essentially just a box that holds a charge to help with the large demand when the AC unit kicks on. This will help your units run easier for a longer lifespan so it's a good idea to install them on each unit. If your units aren't drawing as much power at start up you'll put less demand on the system as a whole, minimizing the chance that you'll experience a voltage drop. We don't have a 3pk but we do have a 2pk # SSR44FR and single # SSR54FR. For...

  • Difference Between Different 50 Amp Power Watchdog Surge Protectors
    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 Bluetooth only then you want to get the # HU87FR. This also has a higher energy dissipation at 6,100 joules. If you want to be able to monitor this outside of the range of Bluetooth and you have Wi-Fi available at the trailer then the # HU62VR...

  • Can A 30 Amp Surge Protector Be Used On A 50 Amp Travel Trailer?
    Hey welcome back, Jody. So your best option here will be to get a new 50 amp surge protector for your new travel trailer. If you did end up at a camp ground with 50 amp service you would want to have it. I know a lot of sites do have just 30 amp but I would hate for you to end up at a 50 amp site and not have surge protection. Surge protectors should always be matched to the service of the RV. For that reason I recommend getting the following: - Portable Power Watchdog Surge Protector...

  • Should I Get the Portable Power Watchdog Surge Protector w/ Auto Restart Over the Standard Model?
    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.

  • Where To Install A Hardwired Watchdog Surge Protector In A System With A Transfer Switch
    Hey Robert, The Power Watchdog Surge Protector # HU82VR can be installed on the shore power lines before the transfer switch. Since it's before the transfer switch it would only be tied to the shore power and wouldn't be an issue with the inverters. The inverters would be separate from shore power due to the transfer switch so the Watchdog wouldn't be connected to the inverters. These units are not waterproof like the portable units # HU62VR since they're intended to be installed inside....

  • Pairing and Security Questions for the Portable Power Watchdog Surge Protector
    Hey Tim, I spoke with Hughes and they sent the following in regards to your questions: 1."I see that there is a QR code to pare the device with a smartphone. Great! But is there a security feature or password setting to keep others from paring to my EMS and controlling or shutting off my electrical service?" Yes, because it has the ability to shut off power, etc, when you first download the app, you will have to create an 'account' which is an email and password. Then you scan the QR...

  • Will Portable Power Watchdog fit 2-3/4 inch Outlet
    Hey Lou, yes the Portable Power Watchdog Surge Protector # HU62VR that you reference does fit the 50 amp outlet you have. This was designed to fit the standard size connector so this would work great for you.

  • Can a 50 Amp Watchdog Surge Protector Be Used on a 30 Amp Hookup?
    Yes, it can Mark. To use the 50 Amp Portable Power Watchdog Surge Protector item # HU62VR on a 30 amp hookup you'll just need a 50 Amp Female to 30 Amp Male adapter like the item # A10-3050FHVP. What kind of motorhome or trailer do you have?
