I had been looking at both of those CAMCOs and have read good things about them.  The hardwire version also sounds good but I am not sure what is required to do the install. 

In my opinion, The progressive industries EMS-HW30C is the right choice. It is hardwired so you need not remember to do anything, and it's always working. It also has a small pendant that comes with it, that shows you how much power your pod is using. I can watch in the morning as i use the toaster, coffee maker, etc. how close i am to overloading and prevent blowing a circuit. Many people here use it. You can get the portable one, but that requires remembering to plug it in, and not forgetting it when you leave etc., not to mention leaving a couple hundred dollar item just hanging on a pole. The real EMS costs about 225.00 but its worth it. It protects you against any electrical issue, high/low volts, reverse polarity, no ground, etc. etc. as well as guards against a hot skin condition. Some people just get volt checkers, which are cheap,but they don't protect your pod, they only tell you it was good at that exact moment. The EMS protects your pod, even when your gone to the beach for the day. 

It was pricey (~$1500 including installation) - it includes tank heaters and pipe heaters on the camper itself, as well as insulating and enclosing the underbelly.  We expect to do some winter RV'ing so it should come in handy.  I do not know the manufacturer offhand - will let you know once I pick up the trailer.   

Welcome, and congrats!  Remember, a camper doesn't have to be just a camper. I use mine as a hotel room often, if i have to be somewhere far away early in the morning, or get out late, I will set up in a nearby parking lot. Many places allow it.
