Unfortunately, the brakesmart is toast, it shorted and was causing a major draw on the batteries which drained them in about 2 days, which in turn due to the cycle of discharging and charging, ruined a pair of batteries. i will take a look at the prodigy. is there anything else to choose from on the market currently? Thanks for the recommendations and keep them coming!
There are other choices. There are time based controllers that the longer you press the pedal, the more braking power is sent to the TT. You do NOT want one of those. The trailer brakes will come on shortly after the accident.
And there are other proportional inertia based controllers. Voyager is one, also made by Tecknosia. Instead of an accelerometer, it has a pendulum that swings when the TV brakes, and of course the more it swings, the more brakes are applied. It does exactly what it is supposed to do. but is pretty jerky, and has to be leveled. But again. the Prodigy series is the best.
