Imagine every RV on the road, not just as a vehicle but as a futuristic hub of comfort and convenience. This is the vision WalTech turns into reality. Waltech 2.0 is the world's first universally compatible smart thermostat for RVs, setting a new course for the 12 million-strong, yet technologically dormant RV market.

WalTech 1.0 has already redefined RV living for over 500 users, boasting a remarkable lifetime value (LTV) and customer satisfaction at an enticing price point. And now, with WalTech 2.0, we're gearing up to go beyond—over 200 pre-orders speak to the anticipation of our tech-enhanced solution designed by an RVer, for RVers.

We're not just selling a device; we are creating a lifestyle with smarter and more connected RVs. We're ready to scale, ready to innovate, and ready to welcome you to the smart RV revolution.

Problem statement

While you might think it's easy to just pop a Nest or Ecobee thermostat into an RV, it's not that simple. Here's why:
For RV Owners:
1. Voltage Issue: RVs use 12v DC from batteries, unlike homes that use 24v AC from the grid.
2. Wiring Complexity: Homes have standard HVAC wiring; RVs do not. In fact, RVs can have over 10 different wiring setups.
3. Unstable Wi-Fi: About 70% of RVs don't have reliable Wi-Fi, a must-have for most smart devices.
4. No Custom Fits: Most smart systems aren't designed for the RV lifestyle, offering little in terms of customization or integration.

For RV Makers:
1. Too Many Controls: Each appliance supplier has their own control unit, and does not talk to each other, so an RV could have separate controls for AC, heat, water heating, etc.
2. Rigidity: The current control center in RVs is wired and rigid. Users can't easily add or remove features.
3. Pet Monitoring: 60% of RV owners travel with their pets but none of the HVAC products offers room temp monitoring/alert features since they do not have smart thermostats.

This combination of challenges creates a substantial gap in the market. WalTech's smart thermostats are engineered to overcome these obstacles, offering a tailored solution for the unique demands of RV living.

TAM: $2.5 Billion (only travel trailers and fifth wheel that is 85% of the RV market)
SAM: $2.15 Billion (85% of TAM that are compatible easily uses Dometic/Coleman/Furrion/GE thermostats)
SOM: $647 Million (30% of SOM are frequent travelers who travel more than 55 days a year)
