- Teacher_s_PetExplorerWe have installed Energy Management Systems on both of our motorhomes. Each has saved on board electronics by not allowing low or high voltage and reversed polarity to enter the RV.
- catkinsExplorer IIA surge can "fry" all electronics on board (TVs, DVD player, radios, fridge, inverter, converters, electronic gauges, AC, generator board, jack controller, and and and...........anything electronic is at risk. ) I know I have been saved several times with power being cut off due to low power. Equally or even more damaging.
I will never know how many time I have been saved but do know I have an insurance policy, so to speak, doing what I can to protect our home on wheels. if I never need it again, my investment was worth it. I have an expensive, aka high quality, 50AMP model and never plug in without it. - ClintonLExplorerWe got hit once in a storm. Lost a tv and a power converter. We were lucky it could have been a lot worse. We immediately purchased a 50 amp portable surge guard and locking hasp. It was worth the 300+ dollars it cost.

I hear a lot about these. Anyone one ever have one? or two? What happens when its happening?
Start by kissing your arse goodbye...haha...along with most go the major electrical appliances in your MH...
Energy management system or multi-function surge guard is what you need...expensive but not as expensive as having to replace the electrical appliances and such in your MH
