Thumbs up Prodigy

Well I just installed the Prodigy in the truck and hooked the fiver up for a little test ride to set the controller up. I have to say I am impressed. This thing stops smooth and works great compared to the old voyager that I replaced. Now I know some out here in Dodgeland will say why didn't you get the Jordan or the Brakesmart. Well I looked at both and chose the Prodigy. The fact that I got it for $79.00 brand new in the box off E-Bay really helped my decision.

Can't argue with you. For the money, the Prodigy is the best. After installing mine I couldn't believe the difference. I'm sure the others are real good too, but I like the Prodigy's price and ease of installation and setup.

Ditto on the Prodigy. 'Tis what I use. Best bang for the buck in brake controllers, period.

Without sounding too much like a broken record......The prodigy is great. I really like the boost feature. I keep it set on #2 when cruisin', but when I slow down and i'm going through a parking lot or something I'll shut the boost off. That way I get good solid breaking power at high speed, and good smooth brakes at low speed. No herkin' and jerkin'

Without sounding like a broken record, you ain't tried a $110 controller 'til you tried a Jordan. My Prodigy is the back up just in case. Luv that Jordan soooo much better. It does take about 10 more minutes to install.
