UNUSEABLE, DO NOT BUY - Tow and winch item

WINCH UNUSEABLE! Very dissatisfied with this winch. I've used it to tow a small boat out of the water and onto the beach on a beach trailer. The winch handled the load with ease, drawing a maximum of 45 amps when I measured with the ammeter. 1. Use: Both wireless remotes stopped working after the first use (assuming the receiver failed but didn't investigate and just kept using the wired switch). 2nd use: winch drum cheek broken off and winch jammed. Then I could not adjust the free spool because of jamming. Absolute waste of money and time. It's all going down the drain.

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
