So, this brake controller...

Picked up the T@b today, and got a brake controller. I don't necessarily see a way to turn it off..... And the instructions don't mention it.  Should it be left on, or turned off when not in use?

The box says it's a PrimusIQ.

thanks!

Mine's always on when the vehicle is running.

Thanks, PXL.

Most brake controllers are always on.  Also most are adjustable.  If yours is, while sitting still hold the break pedal down and turn the adjustment until the indicator light goes from green to red.  That should be about the right amount of braking.

I have mine wired to the ignition side so it turns off when I remove the key.

The manual recommends to wire directly to the battery but many reviews went negative due to drained batteries.  Go figure, whatever.  It works well regardless.  I have the prodigy p3.
