I use a t-mobile sync tracker hidden inside the electrical breaker box backside. I installed a fused USB connector which the tracker plugs into. The wattage is so,so low it won't effect your battery charge as long as you have solar package. This is what works for us for 8 months so far. Just add tons of locks to wheels and tongue. Criminals want quick,easy items. The criminals will move to an easier target if you have like 5 locks and the trailer next to yours only has one lock. I know which one they'll go after. Lol. Removing your batteries is a fantastic idea you mentioned. As an electrician I installed 150 amp quick connect to my batteries. I just quickly unplug the connector and batteries are out. I just made short 2' pigtails to every battery that stays connected to them. I know others who had they're propane tanks stolen so that's great idea with like the E-trailer propane tank locks. Have every serial number at home in case of being stolen.

@rvgearandfar 3 месяца назад

I haven't heard of the sync tracker but that sounds like an awesome option. The battery pigtails are pretty sweet too!

Giving your RV/trailer/property a "fingerprint" is a wonderful idea. I'll be adding a gps tracker to both my truck and rig. My setup might not be top dollar, but it's MINE and that makes it worth protecting.

@rvgearandfar Месяц назад

Any thoughts on which tracker you'll try out?

@She_Tried_It Месяц назад

Wait - it you're scared rats are going to climb up, you don't lower stabilizers all the way to the ground? How do you stabilize the RV then? And let's be clear, rats can jump, just like Woody Harrelson... Good information tho!

@rvgearandfar Месяц назад

When it’s parked and not in use I don’t need it stabilized- just put the tongue jack or landing gear down.

Security is all about layers. I have five layers but I want to add a few more.

@rvgearandfar 3 месяца назад

What do you think your next layers will be?

@nomadmac2001 3 месяца назад

@rvgearandfar I'm the camp host at Pelican Point RV Park at Cherry Point MCAS. I'm thinking about using the Ring system (or similar) since I have shore power. Not only is it good for security but will allow me to service guests if I'm not in the area. I'm having a new 31KQBTS delivered to me soon and first thing I'll do is cut the tow chains to the third link and then add a heavy duty carabiner. This way my tow chain can't be used by thieves very easily. Sorry for rambling. 😂🤣

The video has me thinking...pull the breakaway switch actuation pin and put in a remote place?

@rvgearandfar 3 месяца назад

That would activate your electric trailer brakes- definitely drain your coach battery and then wouldn’t add anything when there is no power

@jerrykrobby 3 месяца назад

Do you have any knowledge or experience with Wi-Fi security cameras? Since we always have Wi-Fi I’m interested in getting a couple I can install on our camper. I know the cameras will need to be removable for travel so that would need to be considered.

@rvgearandfar 3 месяца назад

Personally, not yet. But I've been researching them and many of my friends and family have had VERY positive experiences with the Wyse brand cameras

Layered defense not to "make it a hassle"... just to slow them down so you can "put them down"

layered defense and making it a hassle are two sides of the same coin - just depends on which audience you're trying to connect with

@ban4981 2 месяца назад

Instead of pulling a fuse for the power tounge jack, add a switch above it thats hidden. The fuse is a quick fix. But, if someone checks the fuse and its there....thats a whole different can of worms to open.

@rvgearandfar 2 месяца назад

Nice idea! Adding a hidden jack switch would definitely make it harder to get 12v power to the motor.
