Needed Gizmo

Any inventors out there? Here's something that would be worth making.

RV EZ Level

Why can't someone install a bluetooth transmitter in this little beauty that you transmit to your cell phone and access via an app?

I use an App called Clinometer that gives me a bubble level that I place on the center of my island. If it's level, I feel pretty comfortable with the rest of the RV.

I stick these to the front, left corner of the trailer. Hard to beat for six bucks.

Get married that'll help keep things level. I let her be the judge. It's a complex formula taking in the ammount of time on the road and legnth of stay and about 23 other factors. If she's happy then it's level.

That's actually a really good idea... Although I have doubts about the range of bluetooth from the trailer to in-cab... Might be worth testing.

If you have a TT and not a 5ver, this thing works great. Shows the level both ways, and tells you which side needs shimmed up and how much. http://www.etrailer.com/Tools/Hopkin...FY6EaQodXsYFDg

I've used that gizmo. Its not a bad tool but in the end its almost more hassle than its worth.

Our 2 bubble levels, one on the back in the center, one on the side in the center, are pretty much spot on. I think they were $2 each?

Had one on my last trailer, but it doesn't fit on the tongue of the current one. Went with a smaller, 2 bubble level but it seems out of whack now.

Had one of those... now I have a loyal dog. He can't tell from level though...

Perhaps he's easier to live with though. Strike that, I didn't really just say that.
