Gladly!
The difference between the Blue Ox Patriot 3 Radio Frequency, Portable Braking System BRK2019 and the Blue Ox Patriot Radio Frequency, Portable Braking System # BLU37TR is that the Blue Ox Patriot 3 RBRK2019 is older, no longer available, and has subsequently been replaced by # BLU37TR.
The Blue Ox Patriot # BLU37TR is also a bit smaller, ~4.4-lbs lighter than the previous iteration, and has a faster claw-to-pedal extension time.
Since the older model is not available, I'd recommend going with the newest version # BLU37TR. Reason being is that it is going to be the most up-to-date version, is more compact, and will eventually have smartphone support via an app where you can monitor the system.

Aside from the size difference, is there an actual feature difference between these products? I know that going from BRK2016 to BRK2019 brought in the "inadvertent pressure warning."
