RV brake controller
By G8rJag
I purchased a new suv to tow my camper and when I called the dealer, they told me it would cost me $200.00 to have a controller installed. That was for a bottom of the line controller. I went on Amazon and found the Hayes Energize III for only $57 and the installation was a piece of cake. Not only did I get a much better quality controller, I saved a lot of money. I have already towed the trailer over 700 miles and the braking is so smooth, I can't even feel the trailer behind me.

I have owned an Energize III controller for the past 12 years. As a contractor I tow a trailer at least once a week. From standard utility trailers to 8 ton dump trailers. As a company we have several trucks with different controllers. In this price range we have 2 trucks with Tekonsha Voyager controllers and 1 truck with a lower cost Reese Pilot. of the three, the Hayes/Lemmerz Energizer is the best. The Energize III features a patented sensing device that automatically monitors and measures tow vehicle deceleration and applies the trailer brakes in direct proportion. It reacts instantly to any change in brake pedal pressure and ensures controlled, smooth stops. You can adjust the maximum braking you want like any other controller but it just comes on so smoothly un like the voyger. It is also the easiest to set up. a simple lever on the side that that you point straight down. No more turning a knob untill the diode is just the perfect shade of orange. Also the slide control gives you 100% braking regardless of where you set the controller. I liked this controller so much that I put it in my new 2010 Ford F150 instead of getting the Ford factory in dash unit.

Good instructions and if you want to install it in an '03-'06 Chevy truckyou'll want this:Hayes 81780 Quik Connect Dual Mated Chev/GMC 2007-2003 Wiring Harnesswhich I also bought here on Amazon. Installation was quick and easy.One thing I did different was I used two of my own sheet metal screws to install itsince Chevy had left me a couple holes that lined up. If you install it on the right side like most people do above the accelerator, you'll be putting to the far right close to the doghouse (transmission cover) and you'll need a 1/4" wrench to tighten the screws on that side so pre-start them once. I used my Makita drill with a 1/4" bit and pre-tapped them.This is a great little unit.
