What Are The Differences And Benefits Between Electric And Surge Brakes?
Electric brakes are the most commonly used brake package with trailers, unless it is a boat trailer or watercraft hauling trailer, which mainly come with surge brakes because electric brakes can short out if the trailer is backed into the water. Electric brakes allow you to control them from the vehicle as were surge brakes rely on pressure being applied to the hitch to activate them.
