I have two ATVs with winches. It seems that they pull a lot of power off the battery. I was using one and the ATV shut down -- the battery was dead and wouldn't start until I charged it. So how much does a winch drain the battery? Is it reasonable to expect to re-charge after using the winch for ten minutes or so? Please let us know your experiences and what you know about the physics of the thing.
