surge protector

I am thinking about getting a 30 amp surge protector for my new TT, however I would like to know how everyone else feel about using a surge protector.

    Get one made by Progressive Industries.

    Model number and sourcing it? Amazon?
  • we always use ours. It's saved us from pedestal problems, brown outs, hi-voltage and the first one blew from a surge. Lots of power problems in camp grounds out here in the west. Worth every penny.

  • We use ours every time we plug into shore power, and once it saved us from a bad ground. The CG moved us to a different site which proved to be OK. Cheap insurance is the byword.
  • I have one, been using one for a couple years now.

    About your question? Let me answer your question with a question? If you have a life insurance policy, why? After all, YOU are paying a premium for something that YOU will never use.

    OK, now think about a surge protector for your RV. You will be buying a product to "protect" the electronics in your camper with the hopes YOUR CAMPER will NEVER need it.
  • Insurance. Well worth it. May never need it, but all it takes is one power surge. One miswired pedestal.
