I really like my Jordan Ultima 2020. No inertia unit in it. It hooks directly to the brake pedal. Very easy to set and pretty much a set and forget. the best price I found for it was at
www.bestbrakecontroller.com actually cheaper from them than Jordan.

My next unit will be a Brakesmart. Those that have them love them for smooth stops. But that comes at a fairly high price which I am willing to pay. While my Prodigy is the best that I have owned so far it is not perfectly smooth.

I like my Jordan much better than I did my Prodigy. The latest craze seems to be the Brakesmart if you have the money. It would have to be awful good to beat the smoothness of the Jordan.

No radio problems. I do not remove the unit - - I think you misunderstood. There is a module on the end of the sensing wire. They recommend you lift that from its active position to save wear on the sleeve. That process takes about 5 seconds. I am very sold on this unit.

By the way, I remove my module from the rear active position and push it back in the front of the bracket for solo running. Neat place to store it so it is not hanging or winding around something under the dash.

FiuverBob, how do you get your module to stay in the bracket that way??? Mine just falls out or activates anyway?
