Elecbrakes EB2 Bluetooth Electric Brake Controller Apple CarPlay and Android Auto Compatible Trailer Mounted 12V 24V Trailer Boat Caravan

Founded in the Hunter region of NSW in 2016, Elecbrakes are a leading innovator in trailer braking systems. Specializing in designing, testing, and manufacturing advanced wireless brake controllers, software and ancillaries, they provide unmatched safety and convenience for towing enthusiasts across the country. A fiercely proud Australian company, Elecbrakes has gone to great lengths to keep the manufacture of their brake controller systems at home on the Central Coast of NSW, utilizing a local workforce. The company has focussed their efforts on creating a single, elegant, and reliable solution to a common need among the Australian offroad, towing, camping and 4WD community. 

What makes the Elecbrakes EB2 Bluetooth Electric Brake Controller stand out from the pack is that the control unit mounts directly on your trailer’s towing draw bar, which finally makes it possible to use the brake controller with any tow vehicle you choose at a moment’s notice. Another advantage is that it is far more responsive due to its direct connection to the trailer. 

Why would I want a controller on the trailer?
Because it also allows for far greater flexibility and ease of use. By installing the unit to your trailer rather than in a specific vehicle, any vehicle can now be used to tow and benefit from the brake controller’s operation. This setup is perfect for trade trailers used by multiple staff members or for caravans, trailers, horse floats and more that are typically owned for longer than the vehicles used to tow them. It's ideal for leased vehicles, suitable for loan or borrowed vehicles, and perfect for multiple people who want to tow in your household without the need to cut or modify the dash for installation.

Although the upfront cost of the Elecbrakes EB2 Bluetooth Electric Brake Controller may be higher than older designs, the overall costs are often similar, if not lower when compared to older style traditional brake controllers. You save on separate wiring looms and there’s no need to pay an auto electrician to run these throughout the length of your vehicle, drill holes in your dash or risk damage. It will also last you longer and there is no need to pay for re-installation costs on any subsequent vehicles as the controller stays with your trailer. Over the lifetime of your brake controller, this provides you even greater savings and true flexibility. 

Is it difficult to install?
In a word, no. Installation is intended to be quick and easy, allowing you to mount the unit onto the trailer's drawbar using the provided self-tapping screws and a ‘plug and play’ trailer plug adapter (*available separately in our store) which connects it to the trailer plug and vehicle socket in 10 minutes or less without the need for an auto electrician, modifications or any electrical experience whatsoever. Now that you have your Elecbrakes EB2 Bluetooth Electric Brake Controller on your caravan, horse float, or trailer, you can use any capable vehicle to tow instantly.

What trailers can it work with?
The Elecbrakes EB2 Bluetooth Electric Brake Controller meets the requirements of ADR 38/05 regulations for trailer braking up to 4,500kg ATM that have electric or electric over hydraulic braking systems. This includes but is not limited to caravans, camper trailers, toy haulers, tradie trailers, equipment hire trailers, agricultural trailers, car trailers, boat trailers and horse floats. Using the standard wiring setup the Elecbrakes EB2 Bluetooth Electric Brake Controller supports braking on two axles, with all wheels braked.

The Elecbrakes EB2 Bluetooth Electric Brake Controller is also compatible with both 12-Volt and 24-Volt systems ranging from as low as 10-Volts to 27.6-Volts. The system automatically adjusts its output for a 12-Volt system, ensuring seamless operation with your trailer’s brakes.

How it works:
The system effectively allows you to ‘turn up’ or ‘turn down’ your overall braking force. The brakes are still applied proportionally, meaning if you brake the vehicle gently it will comfortably apply the trailer brakes more softly than if you were to brake the vehicle with more force. This range of braking can be increased or decreased to suit your specific conditions or trailer load. Even if your phone or In Car Battery Remote (*available separately in our store) suddenly turned off or stopped working, your trailer brakes will still continue to function at the last setting you had them at.

The system performs incredibly smoothly. The accelerometer and electronics inside the controller adjusts for any changes in speed 1,000 times per second. Whilst most other brake controllers have 10 increments in their settings to change the overall response, the Elecbrakes EB2 Bluetooth Electric Brake Controller has 100, along with adjustable responses for reversing and the manual override.

Is it built tough?
Designed to spend all its time in the elements on your trailer, the Elecbrakes EB2 Bluetooth Electric Brake Controller is built tough. It is dustproof, shockproof, and IP67 waterproof. This waterproofing allows it to stay submerged to depths of 1 meter for up to 24 hours, making it perfect for those looking to launch and retrieve their boat at the boat ramp. The IP67-rated enclosure also withstands water hoses and jet sprays when washing down your boat and trailer, making getting out of the water and back on the road painless and stress-free.

Is it easy to use and configure?
It’s designed to be easy to get you out on the road fast. You can easily access, control and customize 5 different braking programs through the free mobile app or via an In-Car Remote Control (*available separately in our store). You can even rename each braking program! Have one program named Highway, then switch to Off-Road for example.

As an industry-first innovation, the Elecbrakes EB2 Bluetooth Electric Brake Controller seamlessly integrates with both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, which allows you to program, pick, and optimize your electric brake parameters directly from your tow vehicle's infotainment system, keeping you hands-free and focused on the road. 

If you prefer a physical control over using your smartphone or infotainment system, we also have an In-Car Remote Control available in our store along with a range of adapters to suit any trailer plug pin connection combination.
