Camco 47807 RV Starter Kit | Standard Value Kit

Bringing home your first RV is a great feeling, right up until you're standing at the campsite trying to remember every fitting you need to hook up. Fresh water, shore power, sewer, holding tank. Forget one adapter and your first night gets a lot less fun. The Camco RV Starter Kit puts all of it in one box, so you can pull into a site, make your connections, and actually enjoy the trip. Camco's been making RV gear since 1966, and this is the kind of no-nonsense bundle they're known for.

On the fresh water side you get the TastePURE 10-foot drinking water hose. It's built for potable water, so you can run it straight from the campground spigot to your city water inlet without worrying about taste or safety. Paired with it is a plastic water pressure regulator. Campground water pressure is all over the map, and some parks push way more than your RV plumbing wants to see. The regulator sits at the spigot and keeps that pressure in a safe range so you're not blowing a fitting or a water line behind a wall. Screw it on hand-tight, no tools needed.

For power, the kit includes the PowerGrip 15-amp male to 30-amp female electrical adapter. This is the piece that lets you plug your 30-amp RV shore cord into a standard household outlet, which is handy when you're parked at home charging the batteries or camped somewhere without a 30-amp pedestal. The molded grip handles make it easy to pull the plug without yanking on the cord. Just remember a 15-amp circuit won't run everything at once, so go easy on the air conditioner and microwave together.

The waste side is where a lot of new owners get caught short. This kit hands you a 10-foot ready-to-use sewer hose that comes pre-fitted, so there's no assembly at the dump station. The 4-in-1 quick connect fitting steps down to fit most campground sewer ports, giving you a clean, sealed connection instead of a hose flopping loose in the hole. Ten feet reaches most standard sites. If you tend to park far from the connection, you may want to add a second section down the road. Give it a rinse after each trip and it'll last you a good while.

Rounding it out is holding tank care. You get three TST Orange drop-in packs that go right into the black tank to break down waste and keep odors down between dumps. No measuring, no mess, just drop one in. Keep the extra packs in a drawer and you've got treatment ready for the next few trips. There's also a single roll of 2-ply RV toilet tissue to get you through that first hookup, the kind made to be easy on your holding tank rather than standard household paper.

So who's this for? Anyone taking delivery of a new travel trailer, fifth wheel, or motorhome who wants the essentials handled in one shot instead of chasing parts across three store aisles. It works with any type of RV. This is the standard kit with the 10-foot water hose. If you know you'll be parking farther from the hookups, Camco's deluxe version steps up to a 25-foot hose, but for most sites the standard kit does the job just fine.

There's also something to be said for buying it as a kit. Piece these together one at a time and you'll spend more and probably still forget something. Having the water hose, the regulator, the power adapter, the sewer gear, and the tank packs show up together means you're ready the day the RV lands in your driveway. A lot of folks keep a starter kit like this as a backup set too, so a chewed-up sewer hose or a lost adapter on the road never ends the weekend.
