Product Description

Connect a NEMA L5-30R female plug to a NEMA 5-15P male plug
This lightweight power outlet plugs into regular house current between trips and avoids having to lug heavy cords with you.
You'll need to run a long extension cord in place of pulling out the large cord and finding an outlet with a 30 or 50 amp rating.
The generator is designed to be hooked up to a portable generator and do simple work.
A straight adapter is used instead of a dogbone adapter cord. It is easy to use and compact.

Questions & Answers

Would this blow a breaker on my generator if I ran my microwave in the trailer while connected to this?

Your generator's size and how much load you're running in the trailer will determine the amount of power you'll need. When taken to its maximum, the 15 amp connector should provide 1800 watts at a safe voltage of 120 volts (15 amp You can use the microwave in the 1000 - 2000W range When you have a generator that can generate 1500 watts plus at least 1800 watts to 2000 watts with the motor running and you don't intend to run other electrical devices (air conditioners, hair dryers, electric water heater, etc), then you should be okay. As long as you take care of your other loads, you should be able to do it This becomes the weak link in your trailer's electrical system, and it can lead to a fire or electrical accident. The adapter I purchased was one of the cheapest I could find and I decided to use it for maintenance charging, etc. when I wasn't using the camper and I wanted a power extension cord that was inexpensive (in case the camper got stolen). In the case of a heavy electrical cord (rated for 30 amps), I just use that and then plug it into the 30 amp outlet. An adapter with a 20 Amp plug on the male end to be inserted into a 120 Volt outlet (20 Amp outlet) of In this way, you can be assured that your electrical connection to the trailer is as safe as possible.

Does this item have a 50 AMP power cord or plug, as opposed to a 30 AMP one? Do you know if it works for 30 amps?

Unlike a 30 amp plug, the large end of this extension plug attaches to a twisting 50 amp plug. The bone I use for that is a dog bone

Do you know if it will work with a pool pump of this size The 20a-20b 125 volts?

The pool pump should be 15 amps or more If your pump plug takes 20 amps as you say, it should be fine. Just ensure that the prongs on the pump plug are the same as those found in RVs.

I am guessing you have a 50 x 50 in this configuration, correct? In some places, I've seen similar systems, but how do they compare to yours?

The one I have is not the one pictured but the one I have is a 30 amp to 15 amp " reducer"

The app works great, but the cord lock could be more secure
4/5

Although I see this as a good concept, the connector on my RV mounts down from the underside of the vehicle. While this adapter locks into the camper, the extension cord has no lock so it cannot be locked to it This makes it easier for it to be removed. It would be quite easy to just mold a few eyes or holes in the adapter body in order to fix the problem Through which a zip tie could pass, so that the zip ties could keep the adapter and extension cord There should be two holes on opposite sides of the adapter, and they should be opposite. It might be possible for me to do this, but there would be a risk of damaging the wires In this situation, you wouldn't want to happen.

I'd like it to do what I want! In the wintertime, I use this adapter while my camper is stored in "Winter storage mode" so that I can connect to a 15-amp outlet with an extension cord
5/5

I can power the lights and run some basic power tools without having to drag out the "umbilical" power cord and adapter and an extension cord to reach the outlet in the storage barn if I need to work on the camper. The purpose of the harness is to connect to a portable generator, and I would be able to use it for that purpose in a perfect world (once I get a generator). I was impressed with the quality of the product and the affordability. Freight was also expedited! Despite my disappointment with my purchase, I'm happy with it.

This is a great convenience
5/5

This was exactly what I needed to connect to my home network quickly. There is a screw on part & a pin on part The twist lock action providing power directly to the RV seems secure but does not look as durable as original equipment power cord screw on rings. It will be handled with care so that it does not get damaged. It was very handy, since I could leave the heavy shore power cord stowed between trips so that I could continue using it between trips. Because it wasn't expensive, I'll make sure to replace it if it breaks. I hope this holds up for a long time.

How to deal with ground pins
4/5

In comparison with the alternative cable with separate plug and socket ends, this shorter adapter can seem like a better (more compact) choice. As a consequence, we have to use a second power adapter, as our first one disintegrated at the ground pin - When it's used frequently for a couple of years, it goes off. Generally, we stow this adapter separately from the 120 volt extension cord that we generally use (we prefer the 120 volt extension cord to the 30/50 amp alternatives due to flexibility and convenience. This presents many potential problems, such as risk of cable damage, interoperability issues, and general ease of use). I think it may be better if the extension cord is left plugged in with the adapter Therefore, we avoided connecting and disconnecting frequently, which may have contributed to the failure of a ground pin.

I am very satisfied with how it works This purchase has been a great experience for me
5/5

At my house, I have parked the trailer. With this adapter, you can plug straight into the 50 amp receptacle on the rig using standard household 110 volt power. Exactly what I wanted. Charges the battery continuously after parking and allows the use of smaller appliances (clock, fireplace heater, lights), while the car is parked. My recommendation would be to strongly consider it.

A niche need is met by this product
5/5

Camping areas with 50A service are the ones I prefer to stay at. When I boondock, I rely on solar power. There are times when the weather gets cloudy, rainy, and I need to use a 2000W inverter/generator to keep my battery bank charged. I think this is a very effective way to hook up the generator to.

It does what it is supposed to do
4/5

what it is supposed to do, but the ring around it broke upon arrival, so it is you're looking for something to be secured via a type of ring, then you should not choose The rest of the day was fine.
