The Pro Series POD Electric Trailer Brake Controller is a great option for those who tow light loads at all hours of the day and night, in all types of weather. Its dark, smokey lens makes it ideal for direct light applications, creating optimum visibility to read the large, two-digit display. The POD brake controller kit is a time-based controller that works by electronically connecting your vehicle and your trailer. When you hit the brakes in your tow vehicle, the trailer brake control generates an output signal that ramps up, or increases over a period of time, applying braking power to your trailer at a fixed rate. Its large, easy-to-read dual digit display shows power output and the aggressiveness with which the controller applies the brakes. The POD brake control for trailer also has manual override to help you brake safely when an unexpected stop pops up. It features advanced internal circuit protection, real time diagnostics, short circuit protection, and loss of ground. Because the POD is time-based, it can be mounted in any direction. Plus, the Plug & Play feature allows for quick and easy connection with your vehicle's wiring. The POD trailer brake controller works with 1-2 axle trailers, comes with all the mounting hardware needed for installation, and is backed by a limited 1-year warranty.
