Acessories for a TT

So it was suggested I start a new thread on this.

I am going to buy

1. A surge protector for the RV any suggestions on what I should buy?

2. A cover to protect it while it is in storage for the winter any suggestions?

Do you guys have any suggestions on any must have accessories?

Thanks

    The stick on tap lights are great for having useable light in the camper without using your batteries.

    The reason it will not let power thru is it is seeing no ground and that is a nice feature when plugged into the pedestal because you want to know if there is a open ground. All ginnys usually do not have a ground. Simple flip the little switch to bypass the management & let power thru when using a ginny.

    The thing I don't like about the hard wired version is it won't allow power in from my Honda EU2000i until I flip a little switch on the remote of the EMS.

    Ditto on the power drill. There's a huge thread on that right now.

    Water pressure regulator for when you use city water inlet at a campground.

    Rhino sewer hose.

    A mat of some type to go at the bottom of the steps, and a rug for just inside the door.

    Progressive Industries makes the absolute best EMS and they even come with a life time warranty.

    You don't want just a surge protector but an EMS (Electrical Management System) that includes surge protection. You can't go wrong with a Progressive Industries EMS such as a portable EMS-PT30C or hard wire EMS-HW30C. Progressive has announced improved versions to be released in Jan so you might want to wait a bit before making your purchase.

    A battery operated drill for the corner jacks and an electric tongue jack if using a WD hitch.

    If you'll be in an area like the south west, get a three filter set-up for your water.

    For either one search this Forum for `surge protector' or `cover'. Lots of previous discussion. We have both.
