I haven't used one, but they seem really expensive for a deceleration sensing controller.

It's pretty close in price to the ones that read tow braking pressure, like the Brakesmart or the Maxbrake...

I used a Hensley TruControl (Gold) for about a year. It's an excellent brake controller.

Very simple to install.

I've since switched back to a BrakeSmart. It's a bit smoother and more customizable than the TruControl.
