    Yes. Though, it was 12+ years ago. So, it may not be the same manufacturer, model, etc. available these days. It was under such heavy use in a particular situation that it just stopped working. IIRC it was really warm/hot and the motor didn't like it... but after it cooled down it came back to life. Eventually, the case cracked on it and was tossed. The guy didn't have the money for a name-brand winch, so he went HF.

    In my mind (given some of the predicaments my winch has gotten me out of over the years), a winch ought to go onto the "buy once, cry once" list. Like @Star-Lord , I too go out alone many times. Having a winch you feel you can trust is necessary.

    I've only ever had one winch, a Warn M10000, and it's still going. It should be at least 15 years old, if not more. About 10 years ago, it did misbehave one time and turned out to be a loose nut on one of the solenoids (intermittent working/not working). That was the only problem I've ever had with it, and was an easy fix. Only gets used once a year or two these days. Had to use it in the past month, and worked like a charm. It's paid for itself, for sure.

    Nice! First piece of advice, remove the packaging from the CAT tourniquet and set it up/stage it... sure don't want to be fumbling with all that in the moment!

    Prepping for my fridge install. Picked this up from Off-Grid Engineering with a really nice 21 ft wiring harness to run to my blue sea under the hood.

    I saw @mountainmonkey on West Bowles by Tipsys this afternoon. I waved but his forward focus was way too strong. He did not see me. :(

    Not my video. Last night in Fort Collins.
    This was an awesome concert.
    The audience at the main stage was weak. I was partying at the Linden street stage (concert was simulcast) and it was like a mosh pit.
