Works great for thermometer

The only reason this controller didn't get 5 stars is because this controller didn't have a connector on the end. The adapter I received had to be cut and plugged in. In addition, the installation time including wiring was 15 minutes. Works very well.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Communicate with seller

That works fine. I will not spend much if .

This is my first brake controller. It's a "timer" control that the brake manual for my Dexter trailer specifically advises using. That works fine. I won't spend much if I just want to tow a Β£3500 trailer. I also purchased the Hopkins 47275 install kit which eliminates the lag factor during install. No excuses when everything shows up at your doorstep!

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Protection

This works great on our 2009 Frontier Pickup with Hopkins 47635.

Works great on our 2009 Frontier Pickup with Hopkins 47635 Plug-in Simple Brake Control Cord. I already had 2 rear light control relays on the truck by the passenger door behind the wall. They connected straight away, 15 minutes work there. This refers to the electrical plug. I believe they keep the fuses in your tractor's taillights from blowing if something goes wrong with them.

Pros
  • Decent Performance
Cons
  • Blank

Stop it gently! best in thermometers

Wow, I didn't realize how bad my old brake controller was until I installed the Hopkins Reliance 47285! Easy to install, especially if you have a factory wiring harness. My Ram 2500 came with a tow package. You just need to splice the wires (all wires are clearly labeled), tape, thread and assembly, pretty easy. This device works better than expected. Stops very gently, and to increase or decrease the strength of the trailer brake you don't have to fiddle with the controls all the time, and the

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • No power
