Introducing the Hidden Hitch PRIMUS, a totally proportional electric trailer brake control. Primus utilizes the primary sensor technology from Prodigy and features the Tekonsha one step "Point and Go" set-up system. Easy-to-set systems allows the driver maximum flexibility when determining how the trailer should respond to a braking event. Snap-in dash mounting clip and removable electrical connector allow unit to be quickly stored when not in use. Users will appreciate the digital readout depicting a secure electrical connection and the amount of voltage delivery to the trailer brakes. Primus meets National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) regulations regarding tow vehicle/trailer light activation. Backed by a 15 year warranty.

| Brake Controls |
| Brake controls are designed to apply the brakes of the towed vehicle (trailer). There are three types of brake controls on the market today timed, inertia, and proportional. Another type of braking system that is used for trailers is a breakaway kit. Timed Controls Timed based controls generate an output signal that increases over a period of time. The time based controls apply braking power at the fixed rate that is not proportional to the pressure applied to the brake pedal. Inertia Controls Inertia based controls work very much like Timed based control in that they apply braking power at a preset rate during normal stopping conditions with one very important difference. Inertia controls have a patented "Automatic Over-Ride" system with a separate power supply for unexpected high speed stops. Proportional Controls Proportional based controls offer a smooth braking response to almost any stop. Through the use of a sensing device, the brake control can determine the tow vehicle's rate of deceleration and then apply the trailer brakes to match. In other words, Proportional controls deliver power to the trailer brakes in direct relationship to the actual physical deceleration of the tow vehicle |
