Re: Wench connection to a 72volt
Haha ! Think it would do my X some good tho I also have a 15 gal sprayer, now I just put a 12v battery in the bed. It's going to take some work installing the wench now.....still in the box ! Just hate to drive around w/ a 12v in the bed all the time. Don't understand why they use 8v systems anyway...WTF? While we are talking about the 72v, would really like to hook up some LED backup lights to keep me from backing into chit !!!!

Re: Wench connection to a 72volt
Since winch is 12 volt.
You would need a 12 volt reducer that will supply the amp rating of the winch. Example winch is rated at 30 amp max draw. Your 72 volt to 12 volt reducer would need to be rated at 12 volts/ 30 amps. Fused on the 12 volt side to eliminate risk. Winch would need to be wired directly to converter with in line fuse. Not via cigeret lighter socket. If so cigaret if used would need to be fused for it’s wire size. Instruction recommending plugging into a cigarette lighter plug leads me to believe it only draws 10-15 amps typical for those sockets on autos. |

Re: Wench connection to a 72volt
Thanks Cobra ! Already have a - Pro Chaser DC-DC Intelligent Voltage Reducer 30 amp 48v - 72v to 12v still in the box. I haven't had the chance to tackle this project yet....it keeps moving further down on my list.

Re: Wench connection to a 72volt
I don't see why what you have (reducer) would not work. Be sure to put a fuse on it to make sure.
