Question Winch/battery question

Please don't bash me for this, the other forum I was in did. I want to get a winch for my 660 Raptor (silly right). In order for me to get to the good trails in my area you have to go through some pretty deep spots and I have gotten stuck multiple times, and a winch would really help out. So my question is: If I buy a winch, will I have to upgrade my battery, I was thinking maybe if I kept the wheeler running the battery wouldn't die. I really need some input on this, so if you could help that'd be awesome.

What you need is what you need and there's nothing silly about that. They have a decent size battery so I think it will be okay as long as you leave the engine running.
