What is a good single axle electric brake controller (trailer has brakes at all wheels), its a tandom axle trailer. 8,000 lb trailer. I bought a camper tonight and need to get one before Saturday. Going to trailer dealer and looking for ideas on what is better. I have always used a basic "dial" type in the past, but am considering a digital controller this round. <br /><br />

Prodigy all the way. I thought I had a good one until I got one of those. Actually works really well!!!
Like this???

Yep that is the best brake controller for the money out there IMHO.....
At the very least get a proportional controller and not a timed one.

I just got a sale paper from Camping World today and they have them on sale for less than $100. Great deal if you ask me!!!
Yep, proportional is the only way to stop. My first rig had one of those cheapo timed onesThat one was trash. A real pain and challenge in traffic then open roads then traffic. Pains me to think about it again.
Those prodigies have been the rage for quite some time.
currently boatless
I have the Prodigy as well. It's been the best one I've had so far, real simple to install.

Prodigy or any of the Tekonsha proportionals. No comparison.
I ordered the Prodogy P2 with plug in wire harness. Should be here in the morning. Heading to pick up our camper Saturday. Thanks for the help. It is not a small camper and I wanted something good.
