About
RV Intelligence makes smart RVing accessible through a suite of aftermarket hardware products designed to modernize your RV experience without complicated installations. Their flagship product, the smartRV™ controls module, connects your RV's 12V systems to your smartphone via built-in Bluetooth, enabling wireless control of lights, awnings, jacks, slides, and more—all without cutting a single wire. The module also preserves your existing OEM switches for a clean, factory-look integration. The WoBLR™ is a smart leveling sensor that provides real-time campsite condition data and tells you how many inches are needed to level your rig while you're still in your tow vehicle pulling into a site—eliminating guesswork and saving setup time. The Hitch PinLeash™ is a practical magnetic solution that keeps your hitch pin securely attached and easy to find, solving the all-too-common problem of lost or misplaced hitch pins. All products are made in America and are designed for easy DIY installation, requiring no advanced technical knowledge. SmartRV Controls is ideal for full-time RVers, weekend campers, motorhome owners, and 5th wheel or bumper-pull trailer users who want smarter, more convenient camping setups. The product line is available for direct purchase online and through select local retailers.
