Then-in lies the problem.....you are not monitoring the voltage so you really don't know if it went hi/lo. With the proper EMS (Energy Management System) it will protect from surges, hi/lo voltage conditions, test the power source for proper wiring and with a remote you can see the voltage.

Anything we have outside is OK to be outside...rain, snow, sleet and/or sunshine so I don't worry about them.
FT RVng is ALL about NOT worrying :B
