    The breakaway cable on our 2018 Flagstaff 25BRDS is splitting/breaking. We want to get a new one. Are these one size fits all, or are they specific to the RV? If specific to the RV what replacement type should I get? Thanks!

    100ft 30amp Extension Cord?

    Can I use a 100ft 30amp generator extension cord to power my 2021 Freedom Elite 22FE, when it's being stored/used at home. The closest location to install a 30amp receptacle is about that far away from where the RV is stored. Will I be able to use AC/Microwave like at an RV park? Any...

    50 vs 30 connecting cable

    Have 50A FW. Question about connecting to generator for 30A with 50A connecting cable and 50-30 adaptor. Wondering if adaptor at fifth wheel connected thru 30A cable to generator would be better choice. Or is there no difference other than weight of cable.

    Cable doesn’t work

    On my sunseeker I plugged in the cable to the outside outlet. Then came inside and did an auto scan of the cable. When it was done I have fuzzy sound and no picture.
