My P3 works exactly as the description of the Maxbrake
IMHO...most do NOT have their aftermarket brake controllers setup correctly AND that their TV brake switch isn't setup as tight as GMs
When I touch the TVs brake pedal and move it about 1/64", the brake switch turns on
Way before the pedal to MC piston ever develops any PSI
So my trailer brakes lead my TV brakes

I agree that the MaxBrake was a really good controller BUT there is really not much point in missing a controller that has not been made for quite a few years and is not available any more anywhere that I am aware of. The P2 and P3 Prodigy models work very well and are two of the best ones around.

I don't like when i am going down a grade to get the trailer brakes to come on I have to apply the pedal much harder than normal conditions. Also don't like having to back off highway settings or have the trailer aggressively brake when going slow.
With the MaxBrake as soon as you touch the pedal you are sending juice to the trailer proportionally to your truck brakes making for a seamless braking event up down or flat ground.
Can't be that hard for someone to do the same!!!
