Review on 🔌 Hughes Autoformers PWD30-EPO: Spike Power Watchdog with 30 Amp Shut Off - Enhanced Protection for Your RV by Bobby Watkins

I am a first-time motorhome owner. The cost of a surge protector is much less than an in-house electrical repair of equipment in an RV. I bought this device for two reasons. First, it not only detects problems, but actively protects against many problems that go well beyond a simple power surge; this does not apply to some other alternative brands. Second, a replaceable surge protection module. This is a quality design and customer focus. The app is amazing. I found it really useful to be able to sit in our van and watch the amps being consumed in real time. For example, the compressor in our air conditioner turns on and off depending on the thermostat, but the fan is operated manually and is always on. I've found it very useful to be able to track the compressor turning on and off to quickly fine-tune the thermostat to ensure the AC is set correctly. I can also see when the water heater turns on, measure how many amps each appliance is drawing, and know when I have power left to plug a specific additional appliance into a 120-volt outlet. A limitation and a suggestion for improvement. For other customers like me, please note that this provider has two apps with similar names. One has a black dog face with red highlights and the other has a red dog face with white highlights. They are for different products and you must choose the right one or the application will not work properly. As for the improvements for the manufacturer, when the device is on, the backlight is difficult to see in direct sunlight. An increase in brightness or an additional LED to indicate that everything is ok would be a big improvement.
