Protect your investment
If you aren't using a surge protector, you're taking a big risk. While spikes caused by lightning can damage your electrical system and appliances, there are common electrical issues that can be just as dangerous. Choosing a surge protector with advanced features will help you protect your RV.
Beyond Basic Surge Protection
The most affordable RV surge protectors will provide basic protection from voltage spikes caused by lightning or other transmission issues. They can typically withstand a few minor spikes, or only one major spike, before they need to be completely replaced.
Power Watchdog surge protectors go beyond the basics. Plug it in before connecting your RV to get a clear indication of any wiring issues at your park pedestal. In the event of a major spike, you can replace the surge protection module itself rather than the entire unit. The modules are plugged in without soldering, so you don't need to be an expert electrician to make an easy repair. In fact, the only tool you need is a screwdriver.
Information at Hand
The Power Watchdog app lets you connect to your surge protector via Bluetooth. You can monitor your energy usage, making it easy to diagnose any ongoing energy issues you may be experiencing. When voltage increases or decreases to risky levels, you will be notified right away. You can also reset your surge protector without stepping outside.

Thanks! This item works great. I had a little trouble getting the bluetooth connection to the app but, once I did, It shows all the things I want to see. Nice unit and always nice dealing with Etrailer!!
Works as intended; indicates source ground or wiring issues. Will not reset if tripped and replacement fuse not included.
Seems like a good quality unit. I tried it and the lights came on showing a good circuit. We bought it for protection from surges and to be able to evaluate the parks wiring before plugging into the pedestal.
Nice to have confirmation that our power is good and our camp trailer electronics are safe.
Awesome surge protector, awesome service. Will use etrailer.com again when we need to!
Feel so at ease knowing our camper power is connected. The app also allows you to monitor usage so you know what draws the most power.
Excellent service,from price to shipping. The surge protector was one third the price of the RV dealership and arrived quickly.
Indicator lights are really bright.
Works just fine.
No issues.
I thought I’d bought the one with auto shut of. Don’t see it on your site? But I’m satisfied as this is a Hughes Watchdog
,
The handling of my order went very well. I will definitely use your services again. Thanks again!!
Haven’t use it yet. Warranty card was filed out but wasn’t my info, looks like it was mistakenly included in my order.
I like the option of Bluetooth to see the details of my voltage and amp usage. Also setting of parameters to alert you on issues
I just used it for a 2 week camp. Easy to use and worked great. The bluetooth feature worked very well.
Works as it should, appears to be well built. Am always pleased with with my purchases from etrailer.
This is a great product! The app keeps you informed of how much power you're consuming and is a good alternative to installing a standalone amp meter in your RV.
New to camping. Came to etrailer after buying what I thought was the emergency off version from a HOME hardware store. Turns out they had the wrong image and information. So I started to do some research to decide if I wanted to keep this version. Finding your videos and education was a godsend. And your pricing was better! I decided to purchase this surge protector from you and returned (the same exact surge protector) back to that big orange place. Like I said new to trailer camping (tent camper for years) and still finding out what I need. Your videos are a huge help. Also the great reviews from the community
Worked just had good as the original on es
Très bon produit, pour avoir l'esprit tranquille lors des orages et risque de surchage. Bien fait, robuste et solide, il répond parfaitement a mes besoins.
I have not used it yet but I have heard this is top shelf.
No more apprehension when hooking up to shore-power as there is now an added layer of protection for all the vehicles electronics. Quick delivery also!
I haven't tried it yet but maybe next time the box should be sealed so nothing falls out or someone doesn't decide to open the box and take the item
Haven’t been able to use it yet but I’ve seen it very many times in [online vidos]. This is really what everyone needs to prevent any electrical damage to their RV.
Really like that the Surge board can be switched out. My brother was not so lucky after camping in a private campground this year. By the time they smelled the smoke the Surge protector they had was already beginning to melt.
Product is what I expected. Surprised that there was no packaging or even taping to secure the original Hughes packaging.
First use was on my house extension out to the RV and it had an open ground. Didn't know that. Good job already. Delivered a couple days early, plenty of time before our shake down run. Really like the replaceable surge board if it wears out. Don't know the price yet, but it's got to be less than another unit.
