Reply to "What Are the Parking Brake Options with Aftermarket Brakes"

davidnunnMember

The Tesla caliper is just a parking brake. Some OEMs have an EPB built into hydraulic calipers but I'm not aware of anyone retrofitting them to a Pantera. Physically adapting them is simple; it's the controller/electronics that's the hard part. Lucky for us, Pantera Electronics has a controller for the Tesla EPBs.

When you apply the Tesla EPB, it doesn't just "grab" the rotor, it applies itself progressively; over 2 or 3 seconds. There's a Hall Effect sensor built into the motor that controls the speed the caliper closes on the rotor.
