6. are three ways to power the winch 1 The best way is to use the vehicle s battery The tow vehicle s engine alternator generator puts out about 17 volts and plenty of current amps to power the winch This allows the winch to achieve maximum pulling power To use the vehicle s battery a vehicle wiring kit Item T10135 can be used to route the power from the vehicle s battery to the rear of the vehicle where a plug system can be used 2 A deep cycle marine battery can be placed in the rear bed of a pick up truck and the winch connected to it Use good judgment to secure the battery while trailering 3 A deep cycle marine battery can be installed on the trailer tongue Be sure to use an adequate battery box and means to secure the battery during trailering Q Can I use the trailer light plug on my tow vehicle A The older style 4 FLAT plug four electrical connections in a straight row cannot be used The winch draws too much current for these light weight wires The new style 7 point round connectors typically have a 30 amp circuit The trailer winches can draw up to a maximum of about 35 amps So if the winch is maxed out it would cause the circuit breaker to break the circuit If the boat was light or trailer had rollers it is possible the winch would not reach 30 amps There are so many variables such a ramp angle boat weight resistance on the trailer bunk roller etc that we do not know if your rig would work or no
