I really miss living on the west side. Used to love the heavy lake effect snow while at WMU.

12-24 " EVERY OTHER DAY! No thanks.
That's how it usually is here being we're are inland a bit. Get a stuff northwest wind off the lake and it pukes for days! Can't complain went all winter with 0 snow so I guess we going to pay a little now. Hate February when we're running out of places to plow it out of the way!!!

Anyone use a electiical plug disconnect on there winch? Similar to an Anderson clip ( usually find them on forklift batteries). I can find ones that are 2 awg, but they all say they are rated for 36 volts 175 amps, which the amps seem really low.

I though about doing that exact same thing with mine if I go with something removable.

Haven't looked into the particulars though.
