Expert Answers about Kia Electric Winch

• Electric or Hand Winch Recommended for Loading Cart on Car Trailer
• Since the cart is too heavy to load by hand, I recommend using an electric winch. A winch with a brake, like the Dutton-Lainson StrongArm Electric Winch with Remote # DL25001, will help in stopping your load safely and ensuring the reel locks once the load is in place. The right winch for you will depend on the weight of the cargo you are loading. I have attached a help article on electric winches for you, as well as a link to all of our electric winches.

• Can a Trailer Connector be Used to Power an Electric Trailer Winch
• Electric winches should have a direct connection to a battery for power. The wiring in a trailer connector, like a 7-Way, and an adapter like # HM47675, is not a heavy enough gauge to effectively power a winch. Also, the farther away from the power source the winch is, the heavier the wiring will need to be. I recommend using a wiring kit specifically for electric winches like Trailer and Vehicle Electric Winch Wiring Kit # BDW20207. I have included a link to all of the available wiring...

• Need An Electric Winch To Pull Vehicles Up On A 22 Foot Car Hauler
• The SuperWinch LT2000 Electric Utility Winch, part # 1120210, you have referenced will only have a rated line pull of 2,000 lbs. The rated line pull of 2,000 lbs. will pull a rolling load of 10,050 lbs. up a 6 degree incline, but as the incline increases, the rolling load capacity will decrease. Also, those loads are based on the just one layer of wire wrapped around the drum. Each additional layer of wire (when the winch wire is laid on top of itself) reduces the winchs pulling capacity...

• Selecting Electric Boat Trailer Winch with Manual Operation Capability
• Our range of boat trailer electric winches is shown on the linked page. Many electric winches have a manual cranking option, such as the Dutton-Lainson TW4000 StrongArm Electric Marine Winch # DL25200, which is operated using a 5/8-inch deep socket and ratchet. For a boat/motor weighing in excess of 4000-lbs I suggest the heavy-duty Dutton-Lainson StrongArm Electric Winch # DL25215 which includes a manual crank handle. Winches will last longer when they are used below their maximum capacity....

• Front Mount Winch For A 2013 Ford E-350
• In order to mount a winch to the front of your 2013 Ford E350, I recommend using a front mounted hitch receiver, hitch receiver winch plate, and electric winch as this is the only viable option I see without extensive modifications to the vehicle.

The next thing you will need in order to mount an electric winch to the front of your vehicle is a winch mounting plate such as...

• Long Cable Winch Solution for Moving WaveRunner and Beach Cart 75 Feet
• I really wish we had an electric winch with a long enough cable, but all of the AC powered winches we offer have a max cable length of 25 feet. 75 feet is quite a bit for any electric winch though so I am not sure what would be best solution.

• Recommended Electric Boat Trailer Winch for 6,000 Lb Boat
• There are many factors that can go into selecting the correct electric which, if you want to learn more then be sure to check out the article below. That said, to simplify things we recommend using a 2:1 ratio which means the winch will need to be rated for half the weight of the boat. If the trailer has rollers or a short winch distance you can get away with a lower rated winch but 2:1 is a good rule of thumb. If you're after an electric winch then the Dutton-Lainson StrongArm Electric...

• Electric Boat Trailer Winch for a 7,000 Pound 2002 Robalo R235 Boat
• We have a great electric trailer winch option ideal for use with marine applications such as a boat and boat trailer. Since your boat can weigh nearly 7,000 pounds when ready for a day out on the water you will need a winch that can handle that weight. Dutton Lainson electric winch # DL25215 is rated for up to 9,000 pounds if the angle is slight, the winch distance is short, and the trailer has rollers instead of wooden bunks. The winch comes with a nylon strap so a marine environment...

• Recommended Battery Size for 13,000 Pound Electric Winch
• For a 13,000 pound electric winch you should be pretty safe with a 12V lead acid battery that's rated to at least 650 cold cranking amps (CCA). This will allow for plenty of power to operate this size winch. Most electric winches will also have a specific battery size recommendation in the manual. If you can tell me the exact model of your winch I will be happy to try and track this down as well.

• Electric Winch with Remote Needed to Pull Lightweight Wheelchair Into Toyota Highlander
• The electric winch that I recommend going with to pull your 29 lb wheelchair into your Toyota Highlander is the Bulldog Winch Utility Winch # BDW15008. This is one of our most cost-effective electrical winches and it comes with a remote! The remote has wires that run to the battery and also to the winch. Since both sets of wires have ring terminals you can use whichever length (4' or 6') or wiring for either your battery or your winch. Installation shouldn't be too difficult, but if you...

• Recommended Electric Boat Winch For Loading a Sea Ray 240 Boat on the Trailer
• For your Sea Ray 240 I find that the weight is going to be around 4,500lbs. For this the Dutton-Lainson StrongArm Electric Winch # DL25215 would be my recommendation. This winch has a 3,000lb load capacity for reeling in your boat. If you are using bunk boards the rule of thumb is 2:1, the 3,000lb winch will pull a 6,000lb boat across a level surface. Since no boat ramps are level the additional capacity will account for the extra resistance from the hill and any gear that you will likely...

If the trailer has roller bunks instead of standard wooden units, this winch will work perfectly and have more than enough capacity for your application. This is a great electric winch that features a spring-loaded clutch lever that...
