I may mount it to the trailer but like the idea of just sitting it inside my enclosed pick up truck and bringing it into the garage and charging it when I do need to use it which will be a rare thing most likely, probably four or five times a year.
It has the connection type set up with the same plug on both ends using what appears to be a 10 gauge ground wire and a 8 gauge positive wire. It is about five feet long so I can put it anywhere in the back of my truck and hook it up.

One of the reasons I don't use a circuit breaker is exactly that. No one (except PowerWinch) seems to have them. I've found several different ones on eBay that are 50A.. but the 60's are elusive. I use 8 gauge AWG Powerforce Cable made by JSC Wire and Cable Co. It's super flexible which made it great for routing through a tiny hole in the inside of my Jeep



The 712, 712A and 912 all have that red stripe... it was a "best guess" on my part..lol FYI, that 912 is rated up to 11,500 lbs ...great winch.

If you need/want some of those grey Anderson connectors I can give you my source on eBay. He sells them in packs of 4 at half the price other sellers on eBay charge for one. I like them because once you wire them up it's impossible to hook them up backwards when making a connection, so you never have to worry about connecting positive to negative. Peace of mind is a wonderful thing.
