Supplemental Braking

I just purchased a Jayco Greyhawk 29MV. I am looking to tow a 2012 Jeep Wrangled (4 door) - flat tow. I am pretty much decided on the Blue Ox tow bars, but I am looking for suggestion on supplemental braking systems. Anyone have any thoughts?

I have owned a Roadmaster Even Brake for years now, very happy with how it functions. I have two cars set up as toads (depending on passenger count) and it is easy to place and remove in either one. Just a couple minutes either way.

I did run a dedicated 12-volt circuit from the battery of each vehicle to plug in the Even Brake since on both of my vehicles the interior power points shut down after a period of time with the cars turned off. I also have a charge line from my motorhome wired into the vehicle(s) to keep the battery charged while towing.
