Hi,
It is possible to have the best of both worlds. Cut the shore power cord down to about 4 feet. Put a female end on the "extra" cord. Plug the RV into the Progressive unit (it has a life time warranty) and plug the surge device into the "extra" cord. Mount the surge device in your rv at some convenient location.
Low voltage causes far more damage that surges. I'll be going the autoformer route myself.
that is basically what I did with my surge guard. on my class A it stayed in a basement compartment. but I wouldn't have a permanent one without a bypass feature.
