Every circuit, even just a switching circuit, should have some sort of protection. Be it a fuse, breaker, solenoid....something. A constant hot wire with no protection is a pretty big safety risk. Even alternators have a master fuse or feeble link in the event the alternator shorts out or something bad happens.I have seen winches directly to the battery. Should they be using an interupter? Why?
I am willing to bet the wiring has a fusible link somewhere. That would be a pretty poor choice and liability for the manufacturer to not have any type of protection built in.Power Wagon's are wired direct to the battery from the factory. No switch.
If I'm winching someone. I have my hood open. I like my windshield in one piece. If I'm winching myself out. My hood is close so that I can see. I like using the wireless remotes too.
