RV Lifestyle TIP of the Day: Never Plug In Without a Surge Protector
Campground electrical pedestals are among the most inconsistently maintained electrical systems you will ever connect to. Voltage fluctuations, miswired pedestals, reversed polarity, and power surges from neighboring rigs starting large appliances are all real and documented causes of RV electrical damage. A single surge can fry your refrigerator, air conditioner, converter, or television, sometimes all at once.
A quality RV surge protector with automatic disconnect, either hardwired or a portable model that plugs into the pedestal before your cord does, monitors the incoming power and disconnects your rig if the voltage is outside safe limits. Models from Progressive Industries and Southwire run $100-250 and are widely considered one of the best investments you can make in protecting your RV. Never plug in without one.
Whether you own a motorhome, travel trailer, fifth wheel, or camper van, this app keeps a detailed maintenance log for every repair, oil change, roof reseal, propane inspection, and upgrade you make. Every entry stores the date, mileage, cost, provider, notes, and photos, so you’ll never dig through glove boxes or email receipts again. Because everything is saved to the cloud, your records sync across all your devices — just sign in with the same account on each device.
And you can track multiple rigs without the hassle
Many owners upgrade rigs or tow a toad behind their motorhome. The app supports multiple RVs per account, each with its own profile, odometer, service history, tire records, and reminders. Switch rigs instantly from a dropdown in the header — your data stays organized, not mixed together. ​Other cool features: You can generate a clean CSV export of your records at any time, which is useful for private sales, warranty documentation, or sharing with your insurance agent. The Reminders dashboard tracks service intervals by both mileage and date. It flags what's overdue, what's coming up soon, and what's already been taken care of, so you always know what's next before it becomes a problem. ​We are really proud of this new addition to our lineup of practical RV travel web apps.
