The main thing you need to consider is battery capacity
In Response To: Upgrading to electric winches ()
I would want at least a grp 27 battery dedicated to the winches at a minimum. It would be better to have two grp 27 (or even 29 or 31) batteries for the winches. You then also need to consider charging capacity (alternator output, solar panels, etc.).
