Don & Nancy,
Thank you for your post about Roadmaster's Even Brake system. It is always beneficial to have reports from members who acutally use a system, especially a new system.
Since Even Brake has, at least, a sense of porportionality, it will use more of the toad's battery reserve than would a system like Apollo or BrakeBuddy. Though, it is hard to imagine that it would drain a battery on a 200-mile trip. Since Even Brake sort of shuts itself down when it detects a low batter situation, retaining only the emergency braking features, the toad's battery could have gained a little charge on the remainder of your trip.
Please keep us updated about your remote communications and low battery situations.
