    I've been thinking about using a Ryobi supercharger, gutting it, and wiring all the batts in parallel. By my estimate, that should be enough for a 10k# winch. It's always nice seeing proof of concept. Thanks for posting this.

    Made a portible winch with a warn rt15 and remote controll years ago. power from a 18v makita or car battery.
    Never a problem.

    I like the video, but how much battery (bars) was actually used for that job?

    Did you have to use a voltage reducer from 18 down to 12 ?

      No I didn't, 18 volt battery under load is pulled down to about the same voltage as a vehicle's 12 volt system is when the engine is running at around 14.5 volts.

      @@elliottsconstruction2639 Yes, you absolutely should use either a speed controller or a buck converter to drop the voltage down around 12V. Using either one of these puts practically zero stress on the battery. All the unplugging resetting bullshit he's doing, you don't have to worry about any of that. I've got an M18 set up, 6000lb winch, using a snatch block and a 5.0ah battery and I haven't come across anything this thing won't pull out. In the most extreme cases I lose two battery bars, zero overheating or overloading. It's less than $20 and your battery and winch will thank you.

    The adapter you used, is it just a battery adapter to go from 18v to 12v?

      It's just a plug for the battery, I talk about voltage drop in the video, but it's close and the equipment is not real sensitive.

    The use of a snatch block would have pulled that car twice as fast with half the strain on the battery
