How Long Does Brake Buddy Last?
I know, it depends (how many trips/year, etc), but in general have folks been getting 5, 10, 15 years out of them? Or, is there no pattern?
I‘m asking because I need to set up a 2’d car for towing, need to buy another break away switch (~$75-). I’m wondering if I should just buy another entire system (of course, I’d rather not).
I bought the Brake Buddy in 2005, recently had problems with the Test button (not a major problem). On my last trip the compressor wouldn’t come on initially (but it did later, maybe a wiring connection problem).
Bottom line – I’m wondering if others find these little boxes go much longer than the 10 years I’ve had mine.
