Curt Electric Brake Controller

A CURT brake control is a small electronic device that regulates the electric brakes of a trailer from the cab of the tow vehicle and allows the driver to activate and monitor trailer brake activity. There are two basic types of brake controls: time-based and inertia-based. Each type is classified by the method of activation the brake control uses. Knowing the difference between inertia-based and time-based brake controls is key for choosing the right device for your towing setup.
