Have had good luck with Atwood Tongue Jacks!
It's strong, attractive, has a conveniently mounted light, easy to install,
has an optional hand crank in the event of a battery failure (if for some reason you forget the light on & kill the battery)
Wired it to a 12-volt battery on the trailer that our winch is also wired to, so we can connect & disconnect without plugging into the truck, however when the trailer is in use and plugged in, we use the12 volt source on the 7 pin plug to charge the battery while towing! (always considered this as having a "spare" charged group 24 battery available in case of an emergency)

Take a look around the pit area at trailers to see what manufacturers are installing on trailers?
ATC uses Atwood?
