Review on πŸ§— STEGODON S2 Electric Winch - 9500 lb. Load Capacity, 12V IP67 Waterproof Winch with Hawse Fairlead, Synthetic Rope, Wireless Handheld Remote and Wired Handle by Matthew Frandsen

Revainrating 4 out of 5

It was good as advertised.

I installed this winch on my JK a year ago and have managed to use it a dozen times already. The only issue I had was that I had to fidget a bit to get it from the free spool to the winch position (it gets better the more I use it). Except what he did. Installation is easy, but the battery cables aren't long enough for proper cable routing. If you plan on adding a battery disconnect switch, that would be fine. Compared to more expensive well-known brand winches, the Stegodon motor and gear are noisier, the battery hose can be built better, mainly on/off switch (SAFETY). All in all good for the price so far.

Pros
  • Watertight and sandtight state of the art 500Amp solenoid valve, sealed heavy duty contactor. HIGH EFFICIENCY - 24.6 fpm empty, 6.4 fpm fully loaded. Unique clutch braking system, superior handling.
Cons
  • There are problems
