Kevin, My first thought was to retro fit the winch to the existing 3001, first via a bracket that fitted around the back where the rubber mounting are, then by a separate frame and strap. Neither turned out good sturdy enough and looked like a bodge. As it is in the video its solid, quick and easy, as the original 3001 shape accommodates the profile and orientation of the winch as you see it in the video. Seems logical to just to go with what works best.

 

 

Makes sense, now I've had chance to think about it. It's a new product, there are more sales for an upgraded model than there would be for a retro fit market and if you have a opportunity to innovate, no point 'designing in' compromises. I'm really pleased with current model and upgrade looks like a great piece of competition for the opposition - esp the predicted price point.

 

Laughed at your "you knew JC?" Retort !!!

Nice, simple product :)

 

Another benefit from having an add-on winch is weight, when not using a winch.

 

The vast majority of lowering operations do not require a winch, and having it separate allows you to have a single lowering device without having to carry the additional weight of a winch when not requiring it.
