Question:

I see a previously asked and answered question... Question: On a brake controller install, with it hooked to battery and ground all the time will it draw my battery down if truck sets a lot. 2013 ford f150 thanks asked by: David B Expert Reply: The Tekonsha Primus IQ Trailer Brake Controller, part # TK90160 has a power saving mode feature. If the brake controller senses no motion for fifteen minutes, enables the power saving mode and will have no significant draw from the battery and will not cause the battery to drain. My question is whether that same protection against battery discharge is present in the Reese Brake-Evn Controller. Thank you.

You have nothing to worry about. We don't carry the Reese Brake-Evn controller but it is the same as the by Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller - 1 to 4 Axles - Proportional # 90885 which is made by the same company. The Tekonsha goes into sleep mode after 15 minutes so it will not drain the battery.
