Howdy there, neighbors, Ian with etrailer here. Today we're gonna be looking at the REDARC Tow-Pro Liberty and the Elite on our 2019 Ram 1500. Let's look at some features of it and then get into that install. First we'll take a look at the Elite. It is gonna be the more premium option over the Liberty. Part of the reason is that is it's got the options for a User-Controlled Mode, which is beneficial for off-road driving or high incline driving.

It's gonna override the gain system and put more application to the brakes on the trailer, opposed to the vehicle, extending the vehicle's brake life. And then our Liberty here is going to be the lower-end option. It will only do 12 volt systems, while the Elite will do up to 24 volt. Again, with the Liberty opposed to the Elite, you're gonna see that this will do two axles, and then the Elite will allow for up to three, if need be. So something to keep in mind when you're selecting these.

This is probably, in my opinion, gonna be my favorite brake controller. If I'm gonna put one in my vehicle, it's gonna be either the Elite or the Liberty. Both great options. They do have a little bit of difference. And depending on what you're towing, you'll have to select between the two.

But the Elite is just such a clean look. It keeps everything 90% factory as far as all the connection points and how to mount things up. It does come with a cutout that you can use on particular vehicles. Doesn't work with the Ram here, but we we inchesre able to find a punch out that makes it look very factory compared to maybe a big brake controller sitting underneath your knee at the dash here. So if you're worried about knee knock and having more junk in the way, the REDARC's just gonna be the better option, in my opinion.

The adjustments are very easy. To up the brake force, you just go in that clockwise motion there, got all the way up to 10 different levels that it allows you to go up to. The manual override, again, a very easy situation of just pushing that in. With that audible click, you'll be able to tell that that is activated, plus that nice LED indication is wonderful. So this does have the option as well between proportional, which is just gonna be the mode that it stays in a majority of the time, unless you put it in the User-Controlled Mode. And that User-Controlled Mode, what it's gonna do is apply the trailer brakes in a non-proportional way to where if you're pushing the brake pedal, it's only running off of the knob and the controller here, opposed to your application of the brakes. When in the proportional mode, you'll see this nice blue indicator opposed to the green indicator that's gonna come on once you've got it in that User-Controlled Mode. And to switch control modes here, we've got our blue indication for Proportional. I'd like it in User-Controlled Mode. So we would hook up to our trailer or whatever we're towing, we're going to turn the knob all the way counterclockwise, which we've already got it at its lowest setting. Once it's there, we will apply the vehicle brakes, double-press the knob within two seconds, and you'll see here that it's turned green. And once we release the brakes, it is now in the User-Controlled Mode opposed to our Proportional. Last feature I wanted to talk about was gonna be the park brake feature that it's got. It a
