Please confirm what I think I already know
I lost my job and selling my home and one of my cars. I moved into my camper. I have a little dog and while I lost my job I am fulfilling a "deal" to work 3 more weeks and then I hope I find a new job...

Hi,
Yes that is the same unit I own and love.
It is not often that 30 amps will power 3 heavy draw items.
Some of us get around that by having auxiliary shore power cords. I have the OEM 30, a 20, and a 15 amp. I use a patch board approach using plugs, so I can return the RV to OEM wiring in seconds.
I do have an inverter/charger that allows load support--so I can draw more than 30 amps for a while. BTW load support is NOT voltage support--hence I have the autoformer.

sorry I missed this post and stand corrected.. I assumed it was an isolation transformer.. come to think about it, that transformer would have to be ginormous isolate 30 amps.
I guess my dilemma as I mentioned earlier is do I spend the money on a 30 amp surge suppressor or one with v regulation built-in.
thanks for the link, headed there tonight!
I assume your solar panel setup is for when you have no shore power. I do have a panel with a modest 12v battery built in. But thats only really good enough for a charge of my cell phone and maybe part of my laptop. its made for hunting camera's.
I cant decide on the autoformer.. on the one had if my ac goes out I will wonder if voltage did it and beat myself up, on the other Im currently paying a premium for a premium campground that is safe and offers good utils and clean grounds with a no idiots tenant policy. One complaint and you are out.
Is this the Sola you have?
