Product Features & Design
Smart Wireless Monitoring & Instant Fault Alerts: Featuring built-in WiFi and Bluetooth, the Gen II Power Watchdog allows you to monitor your RV's electrical status remotely from anywhere in the world. During safe operation, the unit lights up white. When a problem arises, it turns red, displays a specific code identifying one of nine potential faults, and immediately sends a push notification to your phone with detailed error information. Both the main faceplate light and internal receptacle bay illumination can be dimmed or shut off via the mobile app for night settings.
Weather Protection & Field-Serviceable Design: Engineered for rugged outdoor use, the PWD50W includes a weather-proof clamshell receptacle bay door and a patented side-entry design that relieves strain on connected cords. Dual lock rings on the cable and door accommodate padlocks to safeguard against theft and tampering. The unit also monitors power usage in kilowatt-hours so you can track campground energy consumption. If the unit absorbs a catastrophic power surge, the patented modular surge cartridge can be replaced quickly with simple hand tools rather than purchasing a whole new surge protector.
