Hughes Autoformers The Original low voltage BOOSTING solution for Recreational Vehicles! Power Watchdog - The World's Best Smart Surge Protectors
(1)

Since 1995 Hughes Autoformers has been the industry leader in providing high quality RV low voltage boosting solutions. Compelled by his passion for RVs and know- ledge of electricity, Mr. Hughes designed the first low voltage remedy to problematic RV air conditioning and refrigeration power requirements. The original Hughes Autoformer has since served as the inspiration for innovations that have paved the way for today’s high performance solutions. With nearly a hundred thousand Autoformers in the market today, you can say ‘We Wrote the Book’ on helping protect RV appliances from costly low voltage conditions. Today’s Hughes Autoformers are designed, manufactured and tested in a World-Class Southern California based Transformer Manufacturing organization The fact is not only are we the original, but we are still the best choice for RV Low Voltage solutions. Hughes Autoformers are designed to increase voltage to your RV and help eliminate low voltage damage to your appliances. Unlike a 'boost transformer', the 'sense circuit' in the Autoformer will adjust the output based on the load demand. For this reason you can run additional appliances on a 30 amp input. I.e.: coffee pot & microwave each draw 1200 watts, total 2400 watts. Add wattage for the converter & refrigerator - about 800 additional watts - & you have 3200 watt demand. If you are only getting 100 volts from the supply, the maximum wattage would be 3000 watts. The Autoformer will boost voltage to give you 3600 watts to your RV! The Autoformer output will self-adjust depending on the demand. With the increase in the voltage to the RV (through the Autoformer) the amperage demand will be lower & the overall performance will be greater. Your appliances will operate smoothly & efficiently without premature wear & damage to motors & compressors. With an operation range of appx. 94 to 125 volts input, the Autoformer will boost your RV voltage to safe & efficient levels. Appliance failure can be costly, as well as frustrating & inconvenient. Many AC motors burn out due to higher than rated current draw caused by low voltage. This wasted current could be better used to operate another appliance at the same time the AC is being used. With low voltage you generally can't run anything else without risk of damage.

As temperatures fall, you might use more electricity for an electric heater.

- Make sure you periodically check connection points for signs of over heating.
- Never use extension cords with portable space heaters.
- Always keep your load (amp draw) to about 80% of the rated outlet/circuit. For example, if using a 15A outlet, and long periods of power use, keep it to 12 Amps or less. This will help prevent things from overheating and melting.

To know your amp draw and other power features, make sure you use the best - POWER WATCHDOG

What is GMI? How the new Ground Monitoring Interrupt rule will affect new 2027 RVs.

Q: Are current Power Watchdog units GMI?
A: No, while our current units can detect for open ground (no ground), the GMI requirement is a little more nuanced and looking for a 'bad' ground. We are working on product(s) that will solve the GMI requirement; at the same time, any current or existing RV out there is not affected.

From The RVGEEKS, tips for finding cheap(er) gas. We all need that these days.

With fuel costs surging, we thought this might be a great time to do a post on our list of the five apps we use for finding cheap gas.
