Cougar 22MLSWE

Hi, I am a travel trailer newbie and trying to figure it all out. We have a Cougar 22MLSWE on order and wondering if it has 50 amp service rather than only 30 amp. I am have having difficulty finding a definitive answer. I do see that the solar package is 30 amp. Thanks for the help!

Your power cord has 3 pins = 30A and if it has 4 pins = 50A. There should be a sticker on the outside of the camper that tells you if it is 30A or 50A located next to the place where the power cord enters or connects to your trailer.

If you're buying accessories like an EMS for your new trailer, I'd urge you to hold off until you can verify that it does have 50 amp service. All of the trailers that I could find for sale that have photos of the interior do not show a second air conditioner plug over the bed. That's usually because the trailer is a 30 amp model. Three of the trailers had photos of a round "shore power hatch" which is usually indicative of 30 amp service, but two had square "shore power hatches" which could be 30 or 50 amp service....

So, it could go either way, at least from photos of the same trailer that I found online......

The 22MLSWE is a Western built Cougar and the brochure says it isn't available in 50A. Read down towards the bottom:

Not unless it's labeled incorrectly from the factory like ours!!
