electronic rv leveling bubbles
Does anyone know if there is an electronic RV leveling system (bubbles) to put into the RV so when I manually lower the jacks that I see or here and electrical indicator to tell me when I am level. I now have two small bubble type levels in two locations and I need to get up to see them. Help

LevelMate Pro...
I saw it at the RV show and was very impressed. I have one on my wish list! For motor home owners it is the way to go. You can tell how far out of level the site is before you even shut down the engine!

This one is much cheaper. Have used one for several years for side to side. After I unhook, I can adjust the front to back with the landing jacks and stab jacks. https://www.walmart.com/ip/29764331?...&wl13=&veh=sem

LevelMatePRO
The product is sound and is accurate. I do love gadgets...
I bought the LevelMatePRO for my TT and my neighbor bought one for his 5er. My first comment is buy good batteries. My buddy's battery died within a month, mine went shortly thereafter. He called them an they sent him a new battery which still died after another month.
We have both come to the conclusion after a season that the gadget works, but we can setup and take down faster, the old fashioned way with simple bubble levels.

ependydad, If you come close to St Louis in your travels I will give you mine...
It works as advertised, just not not for my application.

I find the level that comes in my Iphone is better than any device I ever used. In the motorhome I just lay it on the floor and work the hydraulic jacks. On a trailer I would level it one time manually and when I got it where I wanted put the phone on some solid spot on the frame where I could see it and remember what it reads. Rather than zero, I keep mine 1 degree toward the shower drain.

I have found my level is different depending on where.. The floor, counter, kitchen area, from A frame all read diffrent levels when set up. Would it kill FR to use a square!

So a self contained unit that you can hear and/or see when I am at the driver's seat using the leveling controls just does not exist ? ? ?

The LevelMate Pro. There is also this one, but I don't know anything about it.
The LevelMate Pro has the several advantages, one being that you program your specific unit's parameters into it and when you pull into a site it tells you exactly how many inches off in each direction. This is handy for a motor home in particular, because if a site is too far off you leveling jacks may not have enough travel.
