There's another chinese made warn copy winch called a Duke or something... but i didn't find them particularly impressive at all.

Again - they were half the price of a warn, but the fellow who had it then needed to get a custom bull bar made bacause the mounts were not the same as a warn winch (which is of course what arb bars etc are made to house).

Ramseyrep 8000 copy.
Permanent magnet motor.
Not as good torque as a series wound motor. May lose magnet strength if run hot.
