Insurance

Do not risk it

Almost a 5

Decent app but miss by making you select your system every few times you try and access it. Most people would only ever have one system, why go to a system selection when you only have one? Other than that, a pretty good app.

Unhappy

Device will not connect. Has only connected once in 5 camping trips.

It’s ok

I wish you could check the watch dog from home but ones you leave camp ground it’s lost connection and I hate that wish we could monitor all times

Awesome

After having other surge protectors, this one is by far the best we love it

Easy to install

I hate to admit this, but I’ve been to quite a few rv parks that charge for electricity I got this device so I can keep an eye on how much power I use

Tracer light 30 amp

Been using the unit for more than three years has been flawless 30 amp unit

A gem of a product!

Works great giving real time info. Would love to see a wifi option so I know if power goes out while I’m away. And a time use with graphs. Just an idea.

I work out of my camper and they charge me for my electricity…. This keeps them honest!

Bereft of Featured

This is a fairly useless app. It only shows current power usage while connected to the unit. Unless you’re connected, the app won’t display anything. There’s no history to display, nothing. It doesn’t even retain the last readings. Don’t pay extra to get a Bluetooth connected surge suppressor because it’s a waste of time.

Last update is terrible

Before the last update, this app was waaay better! My biggest complaint is it disconnects when your phone goes to sleep. It used to always be running, so you would get notifications if something was wrong. Now unless your phone is on constantly, you’re not getting any notifications. Pretty stupid and useless. It was 5 stars before the last update

Happy they finally updated the app

Happy they finally updated the app, I really like the new setup it looks great seem to work well to.

Horrible after update

Whoever designed the latest version of this app should find another career. What is the purpose of having a lower limit for amps? Then make the limit 40 amps?! What!? What if I’m on 20 or 30 amps? How has no one thought of this? This app could be so much more useful with so little effort. All they have to do is not deliberately make it terrible. You should be able to turn off the energy use (Kwh) notification by setting it to zero or something. At least let me set it to a number higher than 999 Kwh. I can’t imagine even 1% of users care about that feature but since the upper limit is so low, it makes it a huge pain to turn on notifications for anything since every other day energy use notification is going to bug you non-stop until you go into the app and reset. Those are easy fixes (just remove the limits) and will make the product twice as useful. If you don’t you’re just lazy.

50 amp power watchdog

Has worked great for two years. No issues identified a loose wire problem on my connection on the RV last year. It’s been a great device until now. So essentially I can connect via Bluetooth, but I’m getting absolutely no data from the device in the app.

App monthly cost

Really over $3 a week fee?

I don’t think so

amperage settings

In the old app you could set an alarm if you were on on a 30A plug to 30A now it only goes down to 40A which doesn’t help when you using an adapter to go from 30A to 50A as not all campgrounds have 50A power available. I am not worried when connected to 50A as I am when connected to 30A.

A gem of a product!

Works great giving real time info.

Would love to see a wifi option so I know if power goes out while I’m away.

Newest update disconnectes

Newest update does not keep Bluetooth connection. It takes a new scan and reconnect each time you use it. That 8 or nine seconds is annoying. I love this surge protector and have recommended it to numerous RVer’s. Please fix issue.

The update

Ok I am Glad you finally did an update of something? It wasn’t broke.
Now I would like to get this to go into landscape mode because the device I use is mounted on the wall and now it’s side ways and weird looking. It actually looked better before.

Not able to set parameters

New version of the app looks better and appears to have better bluetooth range. However, now i cannot set any alert parameters. I could vary the parameters in the old app. New app has plus and minus to set, but all are grey and will not function.

Peace of mind

A new camper and this app helped me figure out which items I can use at the same time.

This is a must for campers!
