The new look is more than just a breakthrough for TANK winch. The control box is equipped with the highest quality solenoids, strengthening the gear structure in the transmission, making the whole winch more stable and humane during operation. Review: very good product - I do a lot of off-roading, which means getting stuck in mud is almost guaranteed sooner or later. My friends always laugh when it happens, but since I got this winch I don’t stress anymore. It’s strong, quick, and really steady. What surprised me most is how quiet it runs. Unlike other winches that squeak and grind, this one works so smoothly it feels effortless. The waterproof design is another big plus. I once got caught in heavy rain and ended up buried in a muddy pit. The winch was completely soaked, and I honestly thought it might fail. Instead, it powered through like nothing had happened and pulled my car out with no trouble at all. That gave me a lot of confidence in its reliability. Now I don’t hesitate to take on tougher tracks. This winch has turned those frustrating moments into just another part of the adventure. If you spend time off-road, it’s the kind of gear that makes the whole experience a lot more enjoyable. Review: Very close comparison to BL Apex - This is for the NEW RUGCEL WINCH 13500lb Waterproof Electric Synthetic Rope Winch 12V with Hawse Fairlead, 2 in 1 Wireless Remote,Double color rope. The 1st thing I noticed right away was how well packaged this winch came and how much visually the packaging looked to the Badlands Apex. Having owned an Apex, I immediately knew who they were competing with. That is also where the comparison ended. From appearance only; I prefer the TANK! It’s about 3” smaller in length and a little lighter (not much). The dual color rope is very nice and thicker than the Apex synthetic rope (at least it appears to be). The winch is also slimmer and shorter than the Apex and visually appears sealed up like the Apex. The TANKs wires and control box are also very nicely done. The thermal protective sleeves on the TANK was a nice touch for sure and should also reduce weathering of the cables. I did unwind all the synthetic rope and “stretch” it while rewinding. I did notice the Tank and Apex motors were equally “winch-loud”. The Tanks speed seems to be faster and winding felt more controlled. For about $150 less than a Badlands Apex; you can get the Rugcel Tank. I definitely recommend from first glance as I haven’t torture tested the Tank yet like I have the Apex. The Apex is a 10 out of 10 highly recommend but I have no doubt the Tank will also earn that recommendation. Reminder: the reason most of these “cheap” winches fail is improper install, vehicle weight, utilization, and post trail care. For the “fan boys”, I’ve seen Warn’s fail too. For most folks, a $400 winch will do the job when you need it, especially with these new IP68/69 options. Just for good measure Warn is also a Chinese sourced half “Assembled in America” with domestic and imported parts winch; only you’ll spend 2-5x for it. ## Features - [ NEW DESIGN]The newly designed model allows you to be the focus of your exploration of the world.The black frosted spray paint with new material will not rust.And it improves the model's thermal insulation and model's durability.The all-steel shell can protect the winch well.The new design is more conducive to the heat dissipation of the gearbox to ensure the long operation of the winch. - [SPECIAL DESIGNED]Special designed for atv, utv, car, boat, trucks, jeeps, modified vehicles and multi purpose utility trailers. - [STRONG POWER]7.2hp 12v series wound motor and three-stage planetary gear system with free spooling clutch.85' Length7/16" Diameter Nlyon rope. - [NEW CONTROL SYSTEM]The new control system will definitely surprise you.
