I am in need of a new brake controller. I used a Prodigy P2 years ago for a previous TT and loved it. Just wondering what the thoughts are on the differences between the P2 and the P3. Thanks.

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.

P3 has more bells and whistles. Otherwise it's the same controller.

I like my P3. If spending money I would get the newest model.
