Otrfun's first complaint post about these brake controllers for some insight. It sounds like the brake controller is modulating the pulse too aggressively to keep the braking experience nice and smooth. That's my take anyway.
If you apply lets say 12v to a circuit for only fractions of a second, a typical testing device will likely read a reduced voltage. The brakes will also feel that lower voltage. Lighter duty axle brakes don't need as much voltage to work properly. The more HD axles require a higher voltage. If the brake controller would stretch out, or increase the number of those momentary voltage pulses, the over all reading would be higher, and likely the hd axle brakes would work.
