Well my surge protector saved me one more time. Stopped off at Galveston Island State park on the way home from the FMCA 6 state rally in Conroe. Plugged my Surge Guard in and got a reading of Reverse Polarity and bad ground. Called the office and they worked on it for a while then told me it was good. Well the Surge Guard was still giving me the same report. So I ended up moving to s different spot. I am still amazed at how many people tell me they never had a problem and don’t need a Surge Guard or some other protection for their rigs. This reminds me of the old saying “Pay me now or pay me latter” If you don’t have a Surge Guard you may be paying a lot latter.

I agree completely and WILL NOT plug anywhere without my EMS. I'm so paranoid about bad power that I have a brand new spare one still in the box. It will be put in service when and if the daily use one ever has to go back for warranty service. Expensive spare? Yes, but a whole lot cheaper than what damage could to be done to my 5'er.
