  • Automatically charges battery with built-in charger when connected to your vehicle
    • Won't overcharge the battery
  • Lets you test battery status with the push of a button
  • Mounts on the outside of your trailer's frame
    • Side-loading case provides easy access to battery
    • Self-tapping screws are sold separately

  • Protects the battery from rain and debris with durable, plastic case
    • Rubber O-ring around lid helps keep water out of the box
    • Wiring diagram is printed on the battery box lid
  • Keeps wires neat with included wire loom
  • Includes breakaway switch, charger, battery, battery box, wiring, and wire loom

  • Breakaway cable length: 48"
  • Charger amperage: 0.5 amps
  • Battery:
    • Voltage: 12V
    • Type: sealed lead acid
    • Capacity: 5 amp-hours

Note: A breakaway system is required by law in most states for trailers that are equipped with electric brakes and have a GTW of at least 3,000 lbs.


Built-In Battery Charger and Tester

The integrated charger keeps the included battery charged and ready to go. At any time, if you would like to see what the state of the rechargeable battery is, just push the green button and LEDs will light up to indicate the battery's status. If it's green, it means the battery is fully charged. Yellow shows it's currently charging, and red indicates a low battery.

Quick Tips:

  • When you store your trailer, be sure to keep the pin plugged into the breakaway switch. If the pin's removed for an extended period of time, dirt and moisture can get into the switch and cause corrosion that could keep it from activating when you need it.
  • A breakaway system needs to be able to apply the trailer brakes fully for at least 15 minutes. In general, the heavier your trailer, the higher amperage battery you'll need for the breakaway.

This unit is more complex than what I wanted if you forget to reset it will drain the battery especially during the day when you don’t always see the lights flashing. An audible alarm would help

No issue just great service

This unit works great! Once I reviewed the wiring diagram carefully and recognized that wire colors did not control how to hook things up, and that you had to make sure of the wire functions on the plug side, hookup was a snap. However, this kit has the ICU unit which is supposed to cause trailer lights to flash in event of disconnect, but the wiring diagram does not have any diagram for the extra wire which controls the ICU. In addition, no wiring diagram on the etrailer site shows what to do with that wire. I hooked it up to the marker lights of the trailer, but when I test the unit, no lights flash. I suggest etrailer add instructions for this connection on its site.
