Useless Safety Device for Trailers

Don't waste your money on this worthless piece of automotive equipment. The switch doesn't work properly, and doesn't provide any safety benefits for your trailer.

Pros
  • None
Cons
  • Doesn't function properly

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Ease of installation. except

You will need to purchase a small 12v battery bracket to connect the new breaker cable to the existing battery. This is disposable and difficult to reuse from an existing pull switch. I've had some before, so it's no big deal. So look at your current battery connector and order/buy the same fitting. Inexpensive but requires a trip to the dealership if you don't have them in stock. Another new wire can be connected to the existing wire nut.

Pros
  • RELIABLE SECURITY. This trailer kill switch makes towing safer by connecting your vehicle to the trailer battery and trailer brakes. If the trailer disconnects while being towed the cable will disconnect and the brakes will apply
Cons
  • Not the best option

Ideal cheap trailer switch.

This is a trailer switch. super easy. We've used countless brands and honestly can't say any of them are better or less resilient to falls at the worst possible time (it's a small pendant, if it can break it will break). That being said, I think the biggest damage these devices cause is mouth breathers pulling out the tear-off pin and then "threading" it through the hitch before re-attaching it since they don't have a clamp on the rope itself to that you can clip around your vehicle - so do…

Pros
  • STRONG CONNECTION. This trailer switch features silver contact points to ensure a reliable electrical connection of the wires
Cons
  • Wire is shorter than other picks
