RV FIRE EARLY WARNING SYSTEM

[NeverEasy]

Thanks, Charlie.

Yes, when at the West Coast Rally, I had an opportunity to work on a truck that was having brake problems.  I noticed the difference and did some checks.  The new one has electronics and did away with the long rheostat.  The output was significantly smoother and more linear than the old.  I ordered one and installed it.

I had put hydraulic disc brakes on my trailer.  The old one went from nothing to full lock (skidding tires).  I had to tape a chunk of wood to the knob to keep the old one from always sliding the tires.  The hydraulic disc controller only take .8 amps to lock up the tires vs 13 amps with the electric drum.  The new Hayes is much more controllable.  I dialed it down to .75 amps and I am getting the braking I need.

Hope to see you at Hutch.
