Brake Buddy Select 3 Portable Supplemental Breaking Systems Signal Strength
Updated 07/07/2021 | Published 07/02/2021
Question:
We have a 41foot motorhome which means the remote will be approximately 47foot away from the Brake Buddy and both contained within separate vehicles. Im concerned that the distance/barriers would be too much for stable communication between the two? Am I worried for nothing or is there a finite range?

Expert Reply:
I spoke with the manufacturer, Hopkins Manufacturing, and their tech stated that he's had other customers use the Brake Buddy Select 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System - Proportional Item # HM39524 on rigs with a 55' distance with no signal issues so you should have no problems with your 47' distance.
