There are actually AC powered winches that you could use that would be a better option than converting AC to DC power. The issue is that winches draw a lot of power so most converters could not handle the draw and the ones that can are very expensive and we do not carry them.

The most cost efficient AC winch is # DL25514. It is rated for 1,200 pounds and comes with wire rope and manual handle if for some reason there is no power to the outlet.
