Has anyone tried the "minimover" 12 volt powered jockey wheel. I have a jayco Sterling 21 ft caravan that I find difficult to position.

I have a friend with one like that, not sure if it's same brand or not. He finds it OK on flat ground but if there are any ups and downs it is inclined to slip. Maybe more weight on the draw bar would help.

Yup I have one to move me 17 foot boat and Windsor Rapid Caravan but it's 18 volts plenty of guts no slip as it has crawler tracks.
Called a Camper trolley made in Sweden full remote control even solar reacharge pack built in.
Cost the Earth.
Cheers.

It looks like the Camper trolley can only handle 1500kg.
There is also the E-Go, this is about the same price. I wanted something a little more portable, so I emailed the company and was told they will be releasing a quick release version in July.
