Well, I've been holding down the sofa watching the boob tube all afternoon, except for one old man nap [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

That was last Sunday, a lot of it should be gone by now, but it's sure to be wet and muddy!

 

Here's a bit of a "head's up" for all you good folks.

The winch I ordered from Harbor Freight is one of those that has the box mounted on the motor and contains the receiver for the remote control and the relays associated with reversing the DC motor. On this box is a big warning "DO NOT OPEN". Well, after I got it off the motor and opened up I found out why. Inside is a small circuit board for the receiver and two tiny little 40 Amp rated relays like you would use on some cheap fog lights. Way to small to handle a winch if your going to do more than pull for a few seconds. They must not want folks to see how tiny these relays are. I was going to wire in the switch on the handle bars and also the remote but decided to just go with the bar switch as those little relays would have never supplied enough amperage to keep the winch from over heating.

I would suggest not paying the extra bucks for the remote systems unless you have the opportunity to be sure they are well built.

Think I'll use this remote setup for my sprayer, it's a low amperage draw and it would be handy to be able to turn it on and off without having a set of wires run from the spray trailer to the quad. At least the cost of the system won't be wasted.

Beautiful day over here, hope you all had the same.

Mike

If you go on this ride Hap, be sure to take your water proof map. Memories of Capitol Forest come to mind. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] That was one fun ride.

That was a fun ride, but no riding for me tomorrow, gotta prepare for my Monday trip and do a few things around the house, especially since I was a slug today, didn't even go outside [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]

 

Baltimore and Arizona, that wasn't expected [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]
