About to fit an electric brake controller to my patrol to go with my new Kanga Camper - I've done a bit of research and have settled on a REDARC. Anyone had any experiences (good or bad) with these?
Cheers
Pete

Thanks everyone for the input. Interesting though that no one seems to have a REDARC brake controller but from research on this
forum and others many have fitted that other great redarc product ie their smart dual battery controller. The reasons I was leaning to this particular product were:
1. It's Australian made
2. It's small and very sturdily constructed
3. The company has a very good name
4. It comes with a 2 year warranty
Guess I'll keep researching for a little while yet.
Cheers
Pete

Pete,
if your satisfied with the specs of the Redarc system, buy one.
Just because most people buy other products does not mean the Redarc isn't as good or as efficient, it only implies other people have made another choice, a different choice, yes, myself included :-)
I have read on the
forum some break controllers don't work faultlessly when reversing, and some don't have manual trailer brake control :-(
Maybe is best to talk with someone using a Redarc.

Yeah thanks for that Mainey. I was hoping someone on here was using one in off road situation. I had a talk with other who use them with horse floats and they swear by them. Think I give the Redarc a go and do a report after our forthcoming trip to the Flinders.
Cheers
