i don't care how much people praise their electronic units. if you haven't used a brake smart, smart brake or factory controller you will never understand how dangerous those electronic units are.
I've never used an integrated hydraulically actuated brake controller.
But for 10 years I used my Prodigy with ZERO issues. The trailer brakes always felt seamless whether it was normal driving, stop and go traffic, or even panic stops. I never had a situation when I felt like the trailer brakes were ineffective or the truck was being pushed or jerked by poor braking behavior.

You seem to be on a soap box and your mind is made up that anything except and old-school controller is junk. Good luck.
