Campground infrastructure can be a bit dicey at times, especially when it comes to providing safe, clean power. It’s not uncommon for the power pole at your campsite to suffer from voltage fluctuations, poor wiring, and potentially damaging electrical surges. But thanks to a groundbreaking new product from Power Watchdog—formerly Hughes Autoformers—you can now safely connect your RV without ever having to worry about those issues again.

The new Watchdog Power Center combines all of the company’s best products and technologies into one innovative new device. That includes industry-leading surge protection, excellent voltage-boosting capabilities, and emergency power off to protect your vehicle. Additionally, the Power Center continually monitors the circuit for potentially harmful conditions and will alert owners when those conditions occur.
Set-up is quick and simple. Just plug the Watchdog Power Center into the power pole at the campsite and connect your RV’s electrical cable directly to the device. The Power Center then serves as an intermediary, boosting voltage to ensure your vehicle’s appliances and HVAC system run properly, while also keeping electrical surges and spikes at bay. A built-in digital display offers insight into how much voltage is flowing in and out, while a smartphone app gives users complete control over monitoring and adjusting the system remotely via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.

As if all of that wasn’t enough, the Watchdog Power Center is also weatherproof and comes with a patented user-replaceable surge module that provides further protection. If a significant surge does occur, the module prevents it from damaging delicate appliances and electronics in your RV and ensures the Power Center itself continues to function. Just replace the surge module with a new one, and the device will continue to function.
