Electric Brake Controllers

Brake Controls are designed to apply the brakes on the towed trailer. There are three different types of trailer brake controls available; timed, inertia, and proportional. There are also Breakaway kits available which apply the trailer brakes if the trailer becomes disconnected from the tow vehicle hitch while in motion.

• Timed Brake Controller - Timed based controls generate an output signal that increases over a period of time. The time based controls apply braking power at a fixed rate that is not proportional to the pressure applied to the brake pedal.
• Inertia / Proportional Brake Controller - Inertia and Proportional based controls offer a smooth braking response to almost any stop. Through the use of a sensing device, the brake control can apply varying levels of braking power to match the tow vehicle. In other words, Proportional controls deliver power to the trailer brakes in direct relationship to the actual physical deceleration of the tow vehicle.
• Breakaway Kit - A breakaway kit is designed to apply the trailer electric brakes in the event that the trailer becomes disconnected from the hitch while in motion. This kit is required in many States and Provinces.

Power Inverters

Get the power you need, when you need it. With a power inverter you can convert the DC power from your vehicle to the AC power you need to charge your electronics, run small appliances, or power your tools. We offer power inverters that plug right into your cigarette lighter or utility power ports, or models that hardwire into your vehicles electrical system to provide clean, heavy duty power for your computers or power tools. We all know the feeling of being stuck with a dead battery when you really need to make a call or look something up on your computer, make sure it never happens to you again by adding a power inverter to your vehicle.

• Provide AC power whenever you need it.
• Charge and power your electronics, tools, or small appliances
• Safety features to ensure trouble free operation

Dielectric Grease

Help to extend the life of your electric components with a bit of dielectric grease. This electrical grease helps to prevent corrosion and seal connections by shedding moisture away from sensitive electrical trailer parts.

Warning Lights
