Automatic Electric reel for RV

I would like to buy my hubby an automatic electric cord reel for the RV. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

Here's one that you merely pull the cord out and push a button to retract. They are fairly expensive as they have to run the power through "slip rings" on the shaft, unlike the type where you unplug both ends then just wind on a reel.

You are being redirected...

What a wonderful gift idea.
No brand recommendation, but pay attention to low profile and high profile reels, 30 Amp or 50 Amp cable as well as cable length and make sure it will fit in the dedicated space.

Smile Electric reel

Thanks, Since I don't have a job, guess I'll have to think of something else for Hubby's birthday.

My wife didn't have a job either. She just had my credit card and checkbook
