Is this right for you? Product Expert Kathleen M says:
Yes, if you:
Alternate towing vehicles or trailers - plug-and-play design makes this very versatile
Are unable or unwilling to make changes to your tow vehicle's wiring/interior
Have a BMW, Land Rover, Volvo, or other vehicle with multiplex wiring
No, if you:
Are towing a trailer with an RV or similar vehicle - your phone must be less than 50' from the controller or they won't connect
Would get annoyed using a mobile app to operate the controller, especially if you use your phone for maps or music while towing
Haul a trailer with more than 2 axles
Found this. could help
The Echo does not require you to have a phone connected in order to operate properly. Turn your phone off, or use it for other things and the Echo works fine. You can use the phone to program sensitivity and brake strength, but after that it is not necessary. I leave my phone on to the Echo app so I can monitor brake activity, but don't have to.
