Bobby,
 There's probably only a couple of brake manufacturers, Dexter and Hayes
come to mind. There's quite a few more controller manufacturers. Most
electric brakes draw a maximum of 3 amps per wheel, no matter who made
them, and the controllers are rated accordingly. You'll see some that
are rated at 12 amps (2 axles) and some that are rated higher for
tri-axle trailers.

Go to Tom Patterson's archives at http://www.tompatterson.com for
several discussions on brakes and controllers over the years.
