To me there are 3 items mandatory for rvs; #1 an adjustable water regulator ( not that little thing they gave you when you bought the rv), #2 a surge protector to match your rvs amperage, #3 a clear 45 or 90 degree or possibly a straight fitting for your sewer hose to determine when tank has drained clear. For safetys sake if you are using/or have the hockey puck power adapter to step down voltage, THROW IT AWAY they are a huge fire hazard & get the dog bone adapters.

Thanks Danny. We have a 50 amp rig and the site we are going to be at for the summer is 30 amp. I have a dog bone to use to step down. I have a Progressive Industries 50 amp EMS that is scheduled to be delivered this week and I will be installing this coming weekend. I haven't bought the pressure regulator yet, but I guess I will spring for the fancy one. I've been spending money like I have a month to live.......
I've been seasonal for 14 years at the same place and my sewer was hard piped, but not doing that again right now. The power and water were very stable, so I just had the surge protector at the box. I have to dig that out so I can sell it, I used it one season.
I have a bag, (big bag, like 5 foot tall), of sewer stuff from a seasonal friend at my old park who bought a used 5th wheel. I didn't go through the bag, he gave it to me on my way out last season. I am pretty sure there is one of those heavy duty rhino hoses in there? I wanted to check that before I bought the 45 swiveling clear connector and the extra gate valve. I'll check the bag and order the water regulator and the rest of my "stuff" so I have it before the season opens.
Thanks for the input.
