Is the LED Brightness Adjustable on Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller

Question

Question:

I’m curious if there’s any adjustment to how bright the LED lighting of the control knob is at night? I’m concerned it will be very bright and I will be unable to adjust it.

The LED brightness in the control knob for the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller # RED44FR is not adjustable. However, the LED indicator brightness will reduce after you adjust the braking power or use the manual override. This is designed to be less intrusive on driver's vision at night. If you have the tow package on your 2020 Chrysler Pacifica you will also want the # RED77FR for installation.

If you are still concerned about the brightness of the control knob you may also consider the Curt Echo Under-Dash Trailer Brake Controller # C27JR. This also installs out of sight, but instead of a control knob you would use the app on your phone. The app allows you to adjust the braking power and also acts as the manual override. For installation you would need the # C51515 if you don't have the factory tow package or the # C51446 if you do have the factory tow package.

I have attached some review and installation videos for your reference.
