The EchoTM mobile brake control is the first Bluetooth-enabled, portable brake control that wirelessly connects to your smartphone to control and monitor all trailer brake activity. With a custom-designed app for Apple or Android smartphones, it allows the driver to monitor the trailer brakes, make adjustments, and receive status updates right from your mobile device.
This brake control offers some unique advantages unlike any other device on the market. The plug-and-play device can be easily transferred from one vehicle to another. This feature makes the Echo an ideal solution if you have multiple vehicles or are an occasional tower who does not need a permanent brake control installed in your vehicle.
The unit stores multiple vehicle-trailer profiles, which means if you tow a boat, RV, and another type of trailer, you can store the different trailer brake settings on your mobile device.
To get started simply insert the Echo into your 7-pin trailer receptacle and launch the Echo Smart Control App to connect to the device. Additional features include a triple-axis accelerometer, weather-resistant housing, and the ability to control up to 2-4 trailer brakes.

One of the honours we enjoy at the SEMA Show each year is the position of a Global Media Awards Judge. I pick my top ten favourite products for Canada, and if those new products get enough votes, they get a Global Media Award (and a couple free drinks).
I usually end up with more than ten, and although I feel Canada should get more votes, no one else does. As a result, here are the products we chose and a couple who we wanted to vote for.
