Ratings & Reviews
Well, I'm knocking off two stars because of all the time spent researching the CORRECT wiring diagrams! The one that comes with it is NOT the correct instructions or diagram for this battery. The Battery and test feature and breakaway switch are all well built, but not even eTrailer is getting the problem addressed adequately about the wiring diagram. Fortunately, someone mentioned finding the correct manual and diagram (even it has flaws) on line. Between three different manuals and diagrams I think I'm figuring it out, but it has taken me several hours to do this.
Once installed everything worked perfectly. Be sure and follow the instructions that are provided.
the battery box mounting holes matched the holes already in the trailer (tandem axle gooseneck utility), so that saved some effort. the hole spacing on the short side is 3 1/4", not 3 1/2" indicated in the image on the website. perfect replacement for the original breakaway system when the trailer was purchased new 8 years ago.
During the upgrade of my dual-axle, 4500-lb trailer to disc brakes and "electric over hydraulic" acutator, I needed to install a breakaway kit on the trailer tongue. The Curt Trailer Breakaway kit fit the dimensions and the 5Ah battery provides enough power to actuate the EOH system.
Great product
Good product
Works perfectly.
Works great
Very well satisfied once again with etrailer.com and the products. Always recommend etrailer.com to other people.
Installation was easy and worked great.
As advertised. Good instructions, and easy to install. I would have liked more options for mounting the battery, but it fit around the tongue jack with no problems.
Install went great, battery ships at about 8vdc but will trickle charge with the included charger (off the truck when trailer connected). What I liked was that the charger and battery are pre wired. It also comes with an extra charger in the box. Kudos to curt. Thanks.
Fast delivery service.
Have not installed yet but looks good and was prompt delivery.
