    <edit update> After seeing what happened to us and then going back and reading all the reviews with pictures just to find out that we had the same failure everyone else had, I had to revise my review from 4 to 1 star! There has to be an inherent defect with this unit to see all kinds of different RV'ers having the same issue with melted or fused plugs. Sadly my return window is now closed so I'm out 100 dollars but if anyone asks me for a recommendation on this unit, my response will be a resounding NO. Got one of these 30A protectors for our Summer 2 Remember 2020 and up through our first 5 campgrounds, it worked perfectly until we got to the Joplin MO KOA. While there we had some issues with power, we only overnighted there and when it came time to leave in the morning I found the surge suppressor seized to the pedestal. I was able to pull it out with some effort and found 1 of the prongs melted and showing signs of some sort of an issue. Not sure if we took a surge or a short or what occurred but I was a bit shocked to see this on the prongs of the unit and no red lights on the panel.

      I recently purchased the Southwire Surge Guard 30 Amp Portable RV Surge Protector, and I’m really impressed with its performance. As an RV owner, protecting my electrical system is a top priority, and this surge protector gives me peace of mind knowing my RV is safe from power surges and electrical issues. All you need to do is plug it in to the campground power pedestal and turn the breaker on to see if it is safe to use before plugging it into your RV. It’s compact and easy store in my RV without taking up too much space.

      I’ve used it on a few trips now, and it’s worked flawlessly every time. The construction feels durable, and the LED indicator lights are really helpful for troubleshooting. Overall, this surge protector is a must-have for any RV owner looking to safeguard their electrical system. Highly recommend!

      Using each time at campground locations, to protect against possible bad electrical ground and any unwanted power surge. They do have more expensive and higher quality units, but this is my 2 nd one in 6 years and is still operable. It is constantly in use at my residence and started to show some heat distress in the prong slots. It serves my needs for the price.

      Thunder Storm on steamy night and our AC went off. My buddy next to me did not have surge protector and his entire AC unit was fried due to low voltage. My power kicked back on later on and this unit protected us with no issues to trailer at all. This is a must buy for all RV owners and is one third of the price compared to Hugh’s Watchdog.

      I have used this brand of surge protectors over several years. For the price, the level of protection is very good. Also, the indicators show if any polarity issues, or insufficient voltage. This investment helps protect and could well save your RV. Highly recommend.

      Acheter pour protéger le circuit électrique de notre roulotte. Première constatation, le clapet qui recouvre la prise c'est cassé dès la première utilisation. C'est a faire attention. Sinon, il est facile d'emploi et les lectures de résultats de protection sont simples à comprendre. Malgré tout je trouve que l'objet demeure fragile.
