worked as it should

I got this, as I am always concerned that my trailer breakaway battery is not holding a charge, and will not work if needed. This solves that problem by solar charging the battery, and has a charge state indicator on the top so I can see with a push of a button if the battery is up to duty. And it uses a lithium battery, which has three times the life of a sealed lead battery. Also, I was pleased that the breakaway switch is separate from the main unit, so if it gets damaged it can be replaced - I have seen several of these broken over the years. It installed easily; just replacing the old battery and battery box. I was concerned, however, by the statement on their sales page - "Note:This kit is not entirely waterproof, please keep it protected from heavy rainstorms.". How the heck am I supposed to keep the solar panel exposed to charge and keep it out of the rain at the same time? Time will tell if this turns out to be an issue...

I have not installed this yet on my trailer (I have 2 and am deciding which one will get this) but am surprised I've never seen something like it before. Over the years on multiple trailers I have had to buy, install breakaway units that simply die. This unit costs about the same as getting a dealer to install a new battery and I like the sleek look of it, the easy installation (I just have to cut the old one out and replace with this one which is half the size and weight of the one it's replacing) process and that this will work with a single or double axle trailer.These breakaway units are for when the trailer system breaks down and instead of the trailer heading off on it's own, sends an electrical signal to the trailer brakes which close fully to stop the trailer. It's the sort of safety unit you should have on any trailer, no matter the size and you don't need a massive battery to send a charge to the brakes to make them work...so this small unit should do the trick.The construction is good and I'm excited to get this onto one of my trailers.I'll update this if I have any issues, but don't expect I will.

I am an idiot and broke the break away on my trailer by stepping on it.This replacement is a good price, and the added feature of having a solar charger is nice for trailers that don't get used too often.Install was very simple and it works just like the original.
