Description:
This compact RV surge protector from GEARGO offers 30 amp protection and 12,000 joules of surge absorption to help shield your camper's electrical system while parked at campsites or on the road. It combines a rugged, IP68-rated housing with a plug-and-play adapter form factor so you can monitor and guard against voltage issues without complex installation.
Key Points
The device focuses on protecting RV circuits from high-energy transients and unstable shore power, helping to reduce the risk of damage to appliances and onboard electronics. The orange, weather-resistant casing makes it easy to spot on a crowded pedestal or campsite, and the unit is meant to be used between the RV's power cord and the campground pedestal to provide continuous surge suppression.

Benefits
This protector offers a balance of visible, durable design and measurable protection levels according to the listed joule rating. It helps cut down the chances of costly repairs after a surge event by absorbing and diverting excess energy before it reaches the RV's wiring. The high IP68 protection level indicates resistance to dust and water exposure, which is useful when connecting outdoors in varied weather conditions. Note that surge protection is one layer of defense and does not replace proper grounding or additional electrical safety measures.
Usage Recommendations
Plug the adapter between the shore power outlet and your RV power cord when connecting to campground power. Check the device for any indicator lights or diagnostic markings that may show the unit's status before leaving the connection unattended. Consider storing the unit indoors when not in use to prevent prolonged ultraviolet exposure which could affect the housing over many seasons.
