    An array of cameras and other security products.

    Having a secure RV is extremely important when on the road. While instances of break-ins and theft are reasonably rare, at the very least, having someone enter your RV unauthorized would ruin your trip. Nobody likes to think about safety and security concerns when it comes to RVing, but it’s a necessary part of preparing for and planning. 

    There are plenty of things you can do to keep your RV safe. If you’re looking for an option that will take things to the next level and help ensure your home away from home stays safe and secure, then you need to consider adding security cameras to your rig. Here’s some way they can help. 

    Cameras Monitor Your RV While You’re Away

    Cameras provide monitoring of your RV. They’re your extra pair of eyes. That means once you get to a campground and get your campsite set up, you can go off and go hiking, and your security system’s cameras will monitor your RV.

    It’s wise to have cameras both inside and outside your RV. That way, you can see what happens both at the campsite and inside your RV. Because of the RV’s small footprint, a couple of cameras should suffice. 

    It’s also important to note that security cameras with remote monitoring, like the kind available from SimpliSafe require a Wi-Fi connection, so you’ll need to make arrangements for a Wi-Fi connection as well.

    Video Recordings Provide a Record

    Along with monitoring comes the actual video files. The good thing about having cameras outside and inside your RV is that you have a video record of everything that happens. So, in the unfortunate event of a break-in or theft, you can provide a clear record of what happened to the police, your insurance agency, or any other party that needs to see it.

    Cameras Deter Criminals Before They Act

    Cameras are great for capturing what has happened, but they also play a vital role in deterring crime before it happens. Criminals don’t want to get caught, and cameras provide another obstacle for them. Many will simply avoid a camper with a quality security system. Having a security camera or two on your rig can be an easy way to deter any nefarious activity. 

    Cameras Provide Peace of Mind

    Last but certainly not least, cameras will help provide you with true peace of mind. You’ll know that your RV is being monitored. That means you can more easily enjoy your time away from the campsite. 

    Many camera systems, like the ones from SimpliSafe, provide remote monitoring with your smart device. That means you can see what’s happening at your campsite and in your RV while you’re away.

    SimpliSafe has a special limited-time offer right now. It’s offering 40 percent off a new system and two months of 24/7 monitoring by purchasing any new system. This offer runs only from December 2 to December 7, so act fast by clicking here.
