Getting ready to order a Brakesmart!!!!
Just wanted to check with everyone on the Brakesmart controller. I am getting ready to order one in the next couple of weeks. Can't wait on the Jordan. I want to get ride of this time/duration unit. Is it worth what you pay for it. I am looking forward to getting it installed. Anyone having any issues?

I absolutely love mine. Installation was quick and easy. The trailer stops almost like it isn't there.
If someone needs a less expensive controller I usually recommend the Jordan or the technocia prodegy, but myself I think the Brakesmart is worth the price.

Great unit! I can't even tell that I have a trailer back there. THe stopping distance is the same, AND you don't get that annoying jerking from the trailer brakes being put on 100% when doing slow speed maneuvering!

I'm a member of an RV forum and everyone admits that the Brakesmart is the #1 brake controller. Unfortunately the company was going through supply and other issues when I needed a brake controller and I was unable to purchase it. If my current controller goes bad, I know which one I'll choose next, Brakesmart.

I believe Dr. Performance bought Brakesmart. I got mine from them.
I've used the Prodigy in the past and was satisfied.
However the Brakesmart is superior and well worth the money IMO.

They did have a long delay when I bought mine, before Dr. Performance became involved, but it was worth the wait and money.
I haven't heard anything about delays since.

Easy install. 30 to 45 minutes. Easy to follow instructions.Biggest deal was I had to buy a step bit to drill fire wall. There is no better brake controller. Money well spent.

Mine is setting on the shelf. I got it used, but have not installed it yet. Need to order the harness kit.
A neighbor had one. I really liked it when pulling his trailers.

Actually, I think I skipped the step about putting a hole in the firewall.
I picked the connector apart, and ran the wire through a cut in the rubber boot that blocks where the shift linkage would be for an auto...
