PUBLISHER AND FOUNDER
This is my testimonial for SoftStartRV™, a product that I believe any RVer who travels in hot weather should have. Period!Â
I know Doug and Brian, the owners of the company. They are friends. They are smart and they are honest to a fault. I trust them. I met Doug about 15 years ago, and then Brian later. We meet regularly—to discuss their product and about business in general. They’re good buddies. We spend half our conversations laughing like friends do. I look forward to every conversation.
Doug approached me about a half dozen years ago regarding his new product, the SoftStartRV, and introduced me to Brian. They wanted me to help get the word out to RVers, their target customers. I realized very fast that the product was special, very special. Based on my respect for Doug and the promise of the device, I told him with great enthusiasm that I wanted to help promote the product. Our RV electricity columnist at the time, Mike Sokol, was equally enthusiastic.
How it works
Before going on, let me tell you the easiest way I can what the product does: It enables you to start your RV’s air conditioner when you would not have enough power otherwise to do it because of low power. For example, maybe you are only hooked up to household power or are using a relatively small generator (like a Honda 2200). Or maybe you want to run two air conditioners but are only hooked up to 30-amp power. In all these cases without a SoftStartRV, prepare to sweat.
Air conditioners demand a huge burst of power when they start. That surge can trip breakers, strain generators, and limit what else you can run at the same time. A soft-start device solves that by gradually ramping up the power instead of hitting your system all at once.
Easy to install
It’s really simple to install. If necessary, a technician will show you how to do it via live video chat. SoftStartRV sells other, more expensive devices. But I believe, dollar-for-dollar, this basic device is the best (and the most affordable).
My relationship with SoftStartRV™
If I were younger, I would have asked Doug and Brian if I could invest in their business. I can’t recall saying that to anyone else in the last dozen years. But I was already working my fanny off just keeping RVtravel.com running while my daughter, Emily, was learning the ropes.
So I proposed we scratch each other’s backs, so to speak. (Don’t take me literally, please.) I’d promote SoftStartRV for a small commission on each sale. With 26,000 articles and about 500 newsletters a year, we always have extra space here and there to promote things we strongly believe in.
RVtravel.com is not getting rich off this relationship, but we are providing our readers with a product that WE KNOW they will love, and the revenue we receive helps us pay our bills. Through the years, I have not received a single complaint from a reader who bought a SoftStartRV that I couldn’t resolve with a fast call to Doug or Brian. I’ll bet there have only been five or six issues through all those years.
The SoftStart RV works—Guaranteed
One last thing: Like all good products, knockoffs from Asia have appeared that sell for less. They do not all work properly, and good luck getting a refund. The SoftStartRV works: The company guarantees it and so do I. And you always know where to find me.
