Review on πŸ”Œ Hughes Autoformers PWD30-EPO: Spike Power Watchdog with 30 Amp Shut Off - Enhanced Protection for Your RV by Brandon Barrett

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Feedback #3. (Must read)

I like this (not so) small block. It works well and is easy to use. He's more than I expected. A good device to protect the electronics in your RV. Review #2 I'll reconsider this once I've used it on a 30 day 3000 mile trip. On the second day my water heater stopped working on gas (electricity only). On the 3rd day, my fridge fails completely. I used the conditioner for the first time on day 5. Doesn't cool properly. This was a brand new 2019 caravan that was released for the first time. At the end of my trip I left it at the retailer where I bought it, to fix any problems (under warranty). Today I was told that somewhere on my trip it must have been "Bad Power" because all the circuit boards were defective. Kettle, fridge and air conditioning. The problem I have is that I ALWAYS plugged in that "protector" before plugging it into the 30 amp power cord. This makes me very insecure about this topic. The app and everything seemed to work as advertised but now I'm not sure if it did what it was supposed to and I don't know how to test it! Should I use it again or not? Review #3 After repairing my camper for over $6,000 (all under Jayco's warranty), we set off on our second trip in a week. I used my bulldog and after my complaint they sent me an extra voltage meter so I can visually see the actual voltage going into my camper. Based on my past experience I kept it in mind and looked for low voltage. Everything seems to be working as it should (knock on wood!). I am preparing for my third trip and I hope everything goes well. Yes, I and many other campers recommend surge protectors, but you should also be aware of under-voltage, which can do just as much damage.
