On the hardwired version, how important is the remote?
I’m considering not bothering with buying the version with the remote, mainly because of the bother of running the wiring for it from the electrical service bay to the inside of the coach.
If the remote is really useful, I would run the wire. But I figure the device will protect me from electrical problems and I can always check in the bay if I need to look at the readout. Which I would expect to be infrequently.
Am I missing something?

I don't think you are missing anything. I own the portable version, which resides in my electrical bay and if anything happens, it is no biggie to go take a look at the display. Same thing with the wired version. Convenience is nice, but really don't need a display inside the RV. In fact, most of the time I want to know what's on the display I am already outside at the electrical bay. I always take a good look at it right after I have made my initial shore power connection.
