It sounds like you are speaking of the wires for the brake magnets. If this is correct, you will need to connect one of the wires to the brake controller output wire on your trailer connector and the other wire will need to be grounded to a clean…
Hey Trevor! You don't need to add a trailer battery to use the etrailer Electric Trailer Jack #e72QV. The jack has its own 7-way plug that connects directly to your tow vehicle for power, so it is a really nice option for an enclosed trailer like…

While I was unable to confirm who manufacturers the Defender 2 brake away system on your 2021 Big Tex 60EC. I do agree that the Bright Way Push-to-Test Trailer Breakaway Kit #3802346 does look identical minus the decal and they have the same wiring…

A top load breakaway kit makes checks and maintenance simple, since the lid opens fully even when the box is mounted against a wall. You'll find options for single or tandem axle trailers, plus choices that include a battery and trickle charger or versions without a battery. Sturdy housings and straightforward wiring make replacements and upgrades smooth on a well-used rig.
Yes. You can add a solar battery charger to maintain a Top Load kit. Kits may include a trickle charger that works when connected to the tow vehicle; solar can keep the battery topped off when parked. Mount the panel near the box and wire to the battery per the charger's diagram. Use a regulator suited for small 12V batteries.
Some do, some don't. We've seen kits arrive with the battery charged and a charger included, and others sold without a battery. Check the contents list so you're not surprised. If a charger is included, it typically trickle charges when plugged into the tow vehicle. If no battery is included, pick a compatible 12V breakaway battery.
A Top Load kit makes battery access easier when space is tight. The lid opens from the top, so you can check or swap the battery without pulling the box off the frame. If you mount it close to a wall, leave a small gap so the lid can open fully. Position the breakaway switch so the cable has a straight path to the tow vehicle.
Yes, there are Top Load kits designed for single or tandem axle trailers. Confirm the kit description matches your setup. Make sure your trailer's brakes are wired so the breakaway switch powers all braked axles. Verify wire length reaches your chosen box and switch locations.
