Not familiar with the MAX Brake, but the Tekonsha P3 (Prodigy upgrade) will work with hydraulic brakes...so they claim.

The p-3 will work. and it only takes a push of the button so you can change back and forth at will.

Thanks Guys, they say my prodigy will work with the brakerite unit, I like the way the maxbrake works off the hyd pressure in your brake line on the TV.

I use the Brakesmart controller as it too works off the hydraulics on the TV. The Max controller is a late comer and, I believe, a copy of the Brakesmart.
