Default Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Brake Controller

Anybody have any experience with installing the Redarc Two-Pro Elite Brake Controller in a Cayene?
Wondering if I'm going to have issues with my Trailex and Futura trailers with LED taillights.
I see that Curt has a 7 way trailer adapter for trailers with LED lights, didnt know if I needed that part as well.

Have an '99 Trailex that I upgrade light fixtures to LED versions. I Assume the LED version is for the LED light "load" issues and not brake controller. To fool the SUV bulb testing / fast blink, I added some inline resistors to the LED replacement split points to create enough load that the LEDs look to the SUV connector/logic as incandescent. No change in P3 controller that worked with incandescent,

We had the LED issue with our Touareg. Tried a few adapters, none worked. We just ran with our lights on, and disconnected the trailer plug when we parked. Just disconnect before setting the alarm 😉
