Adjusting electric brakes
What is the norm on adjustment of electric brakes. I periodically haul some machinery, and have to recalibrate the dash module. Should it be set to stop the TV? How do you set yours?

How many folks have been able to get the brakes set such that they can get at or close to lockup??
Reason I ask, is that on both my trailers, I can get the electric brakes to slow the combo down, but certainly well shy of lockup. That's after adjusting the brakes to the point just shy of dragging, upgrading the wiring to #12 etc. with a prodigy controller.
They will lock on gravel, but not on dry pavement. And if activated at a stop, it takes quite a bit of throttle to get moving, can tell they are definitely engaged.
I have mine adjusted and can indeed lock them up @ 25mph on dry,flat, paved roads. I can tell when mine are pulling too much or not enough. It takes some getting used to, but I know where my TV/TT combo likes best on my Prodigy
