Is anyone using the Jordan controller with Dexter electric hydraulic disc brakes?
I was going to switch to a Brake Smart controller however they keep back ordering the darn thing.
I can't see why my Jordan won't work, the hydraulic pressure is proportional to the controller output.

I talked to Mr. Jordon at the Tampa RV show about this very subject. He was emphatic about the fact that it will work just great, but you cannot use the instructions for setup as with the standard brakes. The hydraulic controller does not draw the current that the magnet brakes do and you can't do the origional adjustment for 8 amps or whatever.

I called Jordan and got the same info. Dexter won't share the current requirements with him, so he is unable to provide the setup instructions.
