When it comes to controlling your auxiliary lighting and accessories, convenience, reliability, and flexibility are everything. That’s exactly why the Trigger Controller was designed with both RF (Radio Frequency) and Bluetooth technologies. But why do you need both? Let’s break it down.

The Role of RF Control
RF technology has been a staple in wireless communication for decades, and for good reason. The Trigger Controller’s RF remote gives you instant control with a simple button press. It doesn’t rely on a phone or app, and it works even if you don’t have cell service or Wi-Fi.
Key benefits of RF:
- Instant response: No pairing delays—just press and go.
- Independent operation: Works without needing your smartphone.
- Reliable range: Control your accessories from inside or outside the vehicle.
RF is especially handy when you want quick access to your lights without fumbling with your phone—perfect for off-road situations or when you just need your lights on now. The wireless remote of the Trigger is an RF controller.

The Power of Bluetooth
On the flip side, Bluetooth brings a modern, app-based experience that unlocks more customization and control. With the Trigger Plus App, you can fine-tune your setup and personalize how your accessories operate.
Key benefits of Bluetooth:
- Custom settings: Name and color-code your switches.
- Programmable functions: Set strobe, dimming, or momentary functions.
- Smart integration: Control multiple devices through your phone.
- Use the Voltage Dash Board: Set low voltage cut-off or alerts
Bluetooth is all about flexibility—letting you tailor your lighting system to your exact needs.
Why Both?
The beauty of the Trigger Controller is that you don’t have to choose one or the other. By combining RF and Bluetooth, you get the best of both worlds:
- Fast, no-nonsense RF control when you need it.
- Deep customization and advanced features through Bluetooth.
Whether you’re trail riding, camping, or just showing off your build at a meet, you’ll always have the right level of control at your fingertips.
Final Thoughts
The Trigger Controller was built to handle real-world use, where reliability matters just as much as customization. That’s why RF and Bluetooth are both onboard—giving you instant control and endless flexibility.
