Can Curt Echo Brake Controller Pair to Phone that is Already Paired to Stereo
Updated 04/02/2019 | Published 04/01/2019 >
Question:
While my phone is connected to the wireless Brake Controller via Bluetooth, can my phone also be paired to my car via Bluetooth at the same time? Most of the time Bluetooth can only be used to pair to one item at a time. I would hate to lose my telephone/car interface because I need to remain paired to the Brake Controller. Thanks!

Expert Reply:
The current version of Bluetooth (2.1) supports phones being able to be connected to multiple things. In theory you could connect your phone up to 7 different devices at a time. So yes, you could have the Curt Echo # C51180 paired to your phone and the phone paired to your stereo.
