Electronic Gifts For RVs

Electronic Gifts For RVs

There are some important safety and nifty electronics you can purchase for your RV gift recipient.

First Alert Public Alert Radio with S.A.M.E

If your RV gift recipient does not have a weather alert radio, do them a favor and purchase one for their safety.  As we travel in our motorhome across the U.S., we have found ourselves in different severe weather.   Once while overnighting in a small town in Georgia, we were awoke to a tornado watch.  Definitely not the news you want to hear when in an RV but fortunately we had a weather alert to notify us.  Some of the newer models of weather radios, such as this one, also has alerts for civil emergencies.   How are times have changed!

Garmin nüvi 1490LMT 5-Inch Bluetooth Portable GPS Navigator with Lifetime Map & Traffic Updates

A GPS is not just for the directionally challenged!  When traveling in an RV in areas that are unfamiliar, it is great to have a GPS to guide the way.

Oregon Scientific RM313PNA Self-Setting Projection Clock, Silver

We have an older model of the Oregon Scientific Projection clock and absolutely love it!  My parents gave us one for our RV years ago and it is still going strong.   In the RV, the time is projected on the bottom of the cabinets over the bed that since it sits on the “headboard/shelf” under the cabinets.  We loved this projection clock so much, we purchased one for the “stick house”.

Mastercool MSC52224A Non-Contact Infrared Thermometer with Laser

The Mastercool Infrared Thermometer with laser is a great way to measure the temperature coming from the air conditioning/heat vents and to check the temperature of the RV tires.  If there is a variance in the temperature of a tire, it means the tire is low on air.  This is especially helpful on RVs that have dual tires on the rear as the inside tires are more difficult to see.
