1.
Will it drain the battery of the towed vehicle?
The Apollo system will
sustain battery
life for up to 4 days depending on terrain.
2.
How does it recognize terrain?
The Apollo system has a
built-in logic
sensor. The Apollo unit is digital and analyzes
actions
every ¼ of a second, through a computer chip that
adjusts accordingly not only to the different road
terrains
but even to the drivers habits.
3.
How does it sense to apply the brakes?
The logic sensor is able to
sense
a change of inertia.
4.
Do you have to install anything?
With just the Apollo you
will have
to adjust the seat and hook up spring loaded clamp
to the
brake pedal, and plug the power cord into the
lighter, that
is it. The transmitter will have to be wired to
the cold
side of the brake pedal and also plug into the
lighter adapter.
5.
Does it have enough pressure to apply the brakes
on a dead
pedal?
The Apollo system is
designed to actuate
the towed vehicles dead pedal. Air pressure can be
adjusted
according to the weight of the towed vehicle.
6.
Do you have to wire anything to the coach on the
remote
light?
No!! It just plugs into the
lighter.
7.
Does the pressure gauge show the amount of force
pushing
on the brake pedal?
No!! It shows how much
pressure is
being applied to the cylinder inside the unit.
8.
Is there any brackets that need to be mounted to
the floor
of the car?
NO!!!
9.
Do you need strap to pull the brake pedal back?
No, air pressure is applied
to pull
the brake pedal back.
10. What is the install time?
Apollo installation time is 3
min.,
Wireless Remote dash light indicator installation
time is
10-15 min. and Apollo brakeaway system is 30 min.
11.
What activates the light on the remote light kit?
The light is activated when
the brakes
are applied in the towed vehicle by the Apollo
unit. The
wireless remote transmitter senses actual current
flow to
brake lights and transmits a digital signal to the
receiver
in the coach, illuminating an indicator light
showing that
the brakes are applied in the towed vehicle, not
just the
box.
12.
Will the transmitter in the car be able to
transmit from
under the dash?
The transmitter will be able
to be
properly transmit from under the dash or in the
trunk.
13.
Does the indicator cut into the towed vehicle's
brake lines?
The Remote Indicator
connects to the
existing cold wire on the brake pedal switch. This
allows
the RV'er to accurately monitor when the brakes
are actually
applied not when the unit is activated. The Apollo
is the
only unit on the market, which offers different
frequencies.
This allows our mutual customer to travel in
caravans or
attend other group functions without interference.
14.
Will the outside case withstand the operating
conditions
in a towed vehicle?
The Apollo's
outside case
is composed of Acrylonitrile Butadiene Sytrene
(ABS) plastic,
the same plastic used to make trim for the
interior of automobiles.
The ABS plastic is highly durable and will
withstand extreme
temperatures comparable with those of our
competitors.
