A push-button tester with LED indicator lights makes it easy to know if this breakaway system's battery is fully charged so you'll have peace of mind while towing. The built-in charger refuels the gel cell battery without overcharging.easy to connect and install. However, some wiring instructions enclosed differed from the actual wiring on the battery. The wiring diagram on the cover of the battery box was correct.
Probably says it but in The breakaway box it comes with the battery and that’s been a first for me that has one come with it
Quality product..The could include a better overall diagram showing the installation procedure.. check online for more user friendly instructions
Well built, used before for another trailer. Great product. I Will always use this kit.
Product seems to work however the instructions that came with it had the correct part number but the wiring diagram was wrong. I contacted etrailer and they confirmed that and emailed me a more current diagram which was also wrong. I contacted curt and the first tech told me there was a wiring issue with my trailer. Finding none I called again and was told the first tech was wrong. Then I noticed the diagram on the control cover and it is correct and seems to be working. Called curt again and they said they are looking into the instructions issues.
This item is as expected and was fairly simple to remove my old Curt trailer breakaway brake and wire as old one. Seems to do what it is supposed to. I like the indicator lights.
These worked well on a Featherlite 8127 trailer
Works good as it is intended to. Only thing I did not like is the box that incases the battery does not seal correctly. Probably dose not matter but dust and a little moister gets in. wires are good quality good gauge.
Very impressed with etrailer. I've purchased a goosenect connection for my f350 and it has been impressive. I love your products, the way you provide detailed info about each item, videos, photos, dimension, capacities, etc. Way better than anywhere else I've seen. I've found prices to be reasonable. Service has been great with fast delivery. I will definitely continue to shop at etrailer.
This was a replacement for the original. Seems to be an ideal replacement.
This was easy to install and nothing else was needed. Great features and makes pre check of the trailer easy.
Thomas - 07/10/2020Amid the Covid 19 craziness, I contacted eTrailers to check on an order I had placed and discovered it was back ordered until July. Theresa assisted me in cancelling that order and finding the parts I needed for my trailer in short order. I received the parts promptly and cannot give enough praise to Theresa, she’s an asset to the eTrailer family.
Curt makes good stuff, their people are helpful. Unfortunately this kits instructions do not match the wire colors. I informed Curt of this.It shows hooking up black wire from battery/test panel (neg) to ground. The wires from the battery/test panel box are red,white and blue, NO black.I understand how to wire this in any case.
Replaced a outside rail unit on my Trailex enclosed (1999) with this unit, but moved it inside by winch mount to better protect from elements. 1 year in, start of new towing season, still working as designed (brake engage), charging off of tow vehicle 12v power from 7-pin cable source. Would buy again to replace a dead battery, to all new accessories, not a place to scrimp.
Very good product. Don’t want to see a trailer with thin enough steel that the mounting screws would actually work. Did have a bit of a hard time mounting since the bolt spacing was pretty wide, but got it to work. Kit is complete, works very well, and was relatively simple to install. Recommend it for the money.
Great service. Very user friendly site. Did everything they said they would including up to delivery date.
I like this product it’s easy to install. The only down fall is the plastic mounting tabs take brake with in a year.
Great product to use when swapping out the old surge brake system for a new electric system. Only needed to buy wire and waterproof connectors and I was set.
Came fully charged and ready to install. Made the job easy. I bought two, one new install and one to replace a 20 year old unit.
Satisfied with the quality and easy to install.
item as described, works great
product arrive on time and was a breeze to install. Instructions were clear and all parts were present. I have ordered other parts from etrailer before and had the same great experience. Any parts I may need in the future for any of my trailers will be ordered from etrailer again.
Easy to install, drill 3 holes, hook up wires, done. Works great when tested, instructions were clear enough for even me.
Larry - 03/18/2019If the vehicle 7-way that you are using this with does not have a powered 12-volt connection to help maintain the battery then that may be the issue. If not then check out the installation instructions and refer to page 2 for additional info.
