I just ordered a new Southwire Surge Guard #34951 and a #40301 monitor. This is the same EMS as the 34950 shown on the Southwire site but also includes an internal (bluetooth?) communications system to a remote wireless monitor. This gives complete protection and management features and allows remote monitoring of current levels, etc. Pretty slick system - but not cheap.

Here are the links to a couple of videos - I like this company where I made the purchase. Good website, great videos.

I like the way that both the Surge Guard and the new Hughes Autoformer Power Watchdog products have gone to a wireless Bluetooth monitor now. Definitely would be a nicer finished look than Progressive Industries’ wired remote display where the wire connects under the display. It’s impossible to hide that communication wire unless you do a custom flush mount with standoffs. PI finally has some competition and they better keep up!

The Bluetooth option is nice. I have contemplated semi permanently mounting an old cell phone in the camper to act as a monitor. I used it to check the voltage before plugging the camper in after checking the open neutral and open ground lights.
