Eventually I started replacing bad sensors with their cap style which is more like what you see with every other brand. I removed the locking cap before I even installed them the first time. It hasn't been an issue....knock on wood

and I have the hardwired progressive industries power monitor...glad I have it.
The hughes auto former sure looks like it would be great...my Progressive has cut me off due to low voltage a small number of times...and as I understand it those things are heavy. I don't have the room or carrying capacity for one... but if I did I'd hardwired it inside the rig. My understanding is that some parks don't like them...and even if there's no rule about it, I wouldn't want it outside to draw attention....not from a theft perspective so much, but from a misunderstanding and "too many questions" perspective.
Honestly though, low voltage hasn't been a problem enough for me to warrant one...
OK, you and a thousand others that I seem to have read that don't like the flow-through design! I'll probably steer away from those.

I have the Hughes on order and it's coming in with the hardwire kit, but I can have that installed later.

Thanks.
