Great product, great features.

Small size device, easily installed, small and well thought out remote control knob with great signalling of system status and modes etc. Easily calibrated and adjusted on road.

Excellent manufacturer response to replace lost part.

Connection cables supplied could be longer to enable hook ups without joints for my BT 50 installation, particularly black (power) and white (earth return) cables.

Just installed.

Just installed it in the tow vehicle, but not had the caravan on yet.
Quality of the unit and instructions is very good, but the price is a bit exxy, when considering component costs and other units on the market, although I prefer to buy Australian manufactured product.
I bought the unit after positive feedback from a friend who has one in his vehicle, and the fact that I wanted to get away from having to adjust braking manually when entering built-up areas after highway/country towing (Enough to think about with greater traffic volumes without adjusting the brake controller.)

An excellent, well made product.

The Tow Pro Elite was easy to install with clear instructions and pre-prepared wiring. All components were made to a high standard and I have no doubt it will do it's job for many years. The manufacturer was available for a couple of questions I had with no trouble at all. Read full review...

Tow-Pro is easy to fit

I liked this product as it was easy to fit - most other controllers would have been a disaster. I've got a smaller car with virtually no under dash room to mount a controller. With the Tow-Pro, I was able to securely mount it in the boot, and used a longer 4m control switch cable (available separately from Redarc in several different lengths) to mount the control switch on the dashboard. This easily fitted into a switch blank hole, assisted by using a Redarc universal switch insert (also available separately). The controller itself only requires 4 other leads for connection, +ve, earth, electric brake feed, and stop light sense. I spliced into the factory trailer harness for the stop light, and the only other major bit of work was removing innumerable bits of plastic trim and finding a hole in the firewall to route the power cable to the battery - I ended up sharing the hole that the bonnet release cable used. I only needed to buy a very simple (and relatively cheap) e-brake fitting kit comprised of 8m power cable, a 30a circuit breaker, and some crimp ring connectors. Highly recommended.Read full review...

Quality Product

Perhaps the best on the market....although not cheap. Quality Australian made. Would also recommend getting the genuine Redarc wiring kit to suit your particular vehicle as this makes fitment more streamlined.Read full review...

This is an excellent piece of kit - quite frankly it is the benchmark.

In the install the only visible component is the adjustment knob/remote.

Please if installing it DIY-style, invest in the appropriate wiring kit fit your vehicle. All popular models are available. Literally confess with everything required for the job - including cable ties. Just makes the end result alot more professional.

Landcruiser install takes 120min, I was a bit slower than that, since a couple of steps can be quite difficult - routing through firewall grommet and routing/fixing wiring looms.

Essentially could not recommend another controller. Only downside is the price, but given you can get the controller and wiring kit and do it yourself it is a great offset. All Redarc gear is expensive - but that's cause it's quality and it works.

Redarc Tow Pro Elite - Just the Best, dont bother with the rest

Almost Set and Forget. Dont bother with the old type of Trailer Brake Controllers, these are state of the art system that once its been calibrated it will work everytime without the worry. I purchase the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite to fit into our 100series Cruiser so that my wife when she needs to tow a trailer (which is rare) will be able to easily drive on any road surface without getting into trouble and its not Rocket Science to adjust or to calibrate.

The Control unit will remember its calibration unless the vehicle battery is replaced or disconnected, and then its as simple of Stop Go 20 times to calibrate the system and you dont require a trailer attached at the time, but it is helpful to do so, more for your piece of mind than anything else.

The Controller head itself is small enough to mount almost anywhere under the dash (Redarc make an Ashtray Mount its the best spot) and then a small Adjustment Dial is mounted where its easily found without knocking it everytime you access the vehicle and at a fingers touch. It our 100 series cruiser, we mounted it in the swithc blank beside the mirror adjustment controller.

Do bother with anything else, this is the best available at present and its even highly sought after Overseas its that good.
