Well, I read all the specs and liked what I read. I ordered the controller and now have it installed. Pulled the BS a few miles and everything was really smooth. I'll be going to the Beach in 10 days so I should see if it is as good as they say. The rep said if it doesn't work as good as he said, he'll send my money back.

I know nothing about that controller but it is made by Hensley and that name is a plus, in my opinion.

I second Hensley product based on their ARROW hitch.
Called for a price but they were closed.

Hensley at one time sold Brake-Smart controllers,but Brake-Smart could not supply Hensley with the controllers that they could sell so Hensley quit selling them. This came from Hensley as I had ordered one from them. I did order one then from Brake-Smart and received it but shortly after they could not get parts to make them and at this time I don't know if you can even buy a Brake-Smart any more. I sure am happy with the Brake-Smart. I know that Hensley was going to make there own and if I was going to buy a controller I would highly recommend Hensley controller. I did have a Arrow when we had a TT and now that I have a 5 th wheel I have the Trailer- Saver hitch. IMO if Hensley has their name on it it's got to be real good.

Hensley always has had a good reputation for their WD hitches, so I would expect no less in their brake controller. I wonder how long before you start seeing non OEM brake controllers disappear. Both Ford and Chevy have integral controllers tuned to the ABS system. I suspect Dodge will join the parade before long.
