Re: Brake controller?

I just installed the new Genisis in my truck and my neighbors. We love them . Best controller I have ever had. It has an inertia sensor in it when stopping, the more inertia it feels from the truck the more voltage it sends to the trailer. It is really sweet.

Re: Brake controller?

I was in need of one bad cause my old Tekonsha wouldn't hold its level. Stopped at a Wally World and picked up some $65 dollar knock off and it works like a champ.

You haven't tried the genisis yet. You'll never feel the trailer brakes. They work right along with the inertia of the truck trying to slow the trailer. It's the best thing since the trailer came along!!
