Review on 🚚 Reese Towpower 8508211 Proportional BRAKE-EVN Brake Control: Superior Trailer Braking Efficiency by Barry Taylor

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Small and easy to install

Installed it on my 2009 Honda Pilot in less than 30 minutes. The hardest part was finding a good spot under the dash where I wouldn't bang my knee on it. Keep in mind that this is NOT a device that can be mounted in any direction, but it does have a fairly wide mounting width. It's also small enough to fit in many places. Be sure to purchase the correct wiring harness if your vehicle is pre-wired for towing - this will make the installation much quicker. Also, vehicles pre-wired with tow controls may not have a fuse for this circuit. That was the case with my pilot, who immediately panicked because of a non-functioning controller.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Not bad
