That'd pull a winch to the moon, with 2k rpm behind it.

Agreed...not.

Since neither the plug nor the controller itself are waterproof, waterproofing well soldered and taped joints may be like putting lipstick on a pig. Won't hurt a thing, though.

Winch control wiring is easy to extend...4 strands of the same diameter as original, 8 solder joints, and a bunch of electrical tape to close it up. Easy peasy, and cheap. You can go fancier, but needn't.

Agreed.

The winch control doesn't reach the driver's seat??? That's dumber than dumb. Fix it. If you can't put a foot on the brakes to lock all 4 wheels in a hard pull, you're missing out on pull capacity big time, Sean. Hell, many's the time I've chained a rig down from the tow hitch to something...

First and foremost, are you keeping the vehicle engine running whilst using the winch? I didn't see that point mentioned in your post. And if so, are you bumping the idle speed up to increase the alternator output during the heavy winch pulls?
