Demco Air Force One Flat Tow Brake System for RVs w/ Air Brakes - Proportional
Timely delivery, excellent product with support information available as needed. Used video to support step by step installation and all went well. Used the braking system recently on a multi-state two week trip and worked perfectly.
I am missing several components.....good response in getting me what's missing. For example I had 13ft of 1/4 hose instead of 50ft. Missing the led mirror kit and connecting blue hose kits all together. I was mailed a collection of some of the parts - not a kit.

Roadmaster InvisiBrake Flat Tow Brake System - Preset
The product arrived within a reasonable amount of time. Instruction for installation was pretty good between both what came with the kit and the video etrailer web site. For the most part the installation went well but there are a few things I would like to comment on, and they are: 1) The self tapping screws to install the control unit to the floor of my towed vehicle were too short to get through the carpeting and into the sheet metal with enough bite to hold. Instead I used longer 1/4 - 20 bolts. 2) The vacuum check valve came apart while I was pushing it into the brake vacuum line. I was able to not lose the rubber membrane inside and used super glue to put it back together. I tested it and is working fine but I did order another check valve to the tune of [a few extra] more dollars. 3) It would have been nice to have the etrailer video show something on where to hook up the "Monitor System" from the towed vehicle. It took some doing but I was able to locate the brake switch and tap into the cold side for the signal. Although I haven't put any miles on this system yet my test of it went well.
Received 1st unit that worked for about an hour until it locked up the brakes. Received replacement but was damaged in shipment, then received 3rd replacement with the mounting tabs damaged in shipment...I was able to repair and use the 3rd unit. Great customer service...Invisibrake works well, but packaging needs improvement.

Roadmaster Even Brake Portable Flat Tow Brake System - Proportional
So I never used mine. This is for those trying to decide if they need one. I tow an F250 with a 43’ tag axle, with an 8.9l Cummings. Yes I can feel the truck back there but I have never had the need for additional braking. Crossing the Snoqualmie pass on I-90 or driving through the cascades, I have no problems slowing with the engine brake. I have a big rig and tow a big truck so if this is your set up I’d give it a shot before committing to such an expensive item that I never use. I’m sure smaller rigs pulling larger trucks will benefit from a device like this.
Ordering was easy. Delivered very promptly. Actually cheaper then what the manufacturer sells it for. Live near manufacturer and having them install all my flat towing components this month. Great service Etrailer!!

Brake Buddy Classic 3 Portable Flat Tow Brake System - Preset
Easy set up and works well. Only issue I have is the plug in will lose contact if not careful to make sure it is completely strait.

Roadmaster BrakeMaster for RVs w/ Air or Air-Over-Hydraulic Brakes - Proportional
The product shipped on time and has been worry free. etrailer gets 5 stars for customer service every time I order from them.
This braking system does what it's suppose to do, smooth proportional braking between motorhome air brakes and the tow vehicle. The only reason I did not rate at 5 stars is that there is a slight misalignment of air cylinder mounting bracket and 2022 Jeep Gladiator brake pedal.

Demco Air Force One Flat Tow Brake System for 2020 and Newer Tiffin Chassis RVs w/Factory Air Brakes
Towing a 2020 F250SD with powerstroke. The Blue Ox Patriot 3 just would not press the petal enough. This applies the breaks well. Had to mount the box behind grill due to no room under hood. Used some copper wire to make sure it stayed in place. Had to cut a bit of the plastic cover over radiator. One thing did that was a little off the instructions is I did not run power into cab with air hose. I took power off my charging coach-> Toad charging circuit because it was under the bumper. For the reed switch I ran a wire to passenger side fuse box and used a fuse tap. Every thing else was pretty easy. I am pretty handy and have all tools needed. I installed in about 6 hr.
This system along with installation videos and info was exactly what I needed. I thank Alex J. for all the help making sure I had everything needed for my specific 2009 Wrangler. Systems, accessories, and installation vary by year and Jeep mods, Alex went above and beyond to make sure every part of this install worked for my specific rig setup and vehicle.
What our customers are saying:
"WOW! I am impressed! I called to place my order and real person answered, spoke perfect English, albeit a slight southern accent, and my order was sent within a day, shipped quickly and I had it a few days later. I saved over a hundred dollars over local and installed it my self. I cant imagine how that they could do any better. THANKS!"
