Gonna wire up my warn m8000 to my disco got 90ah and 750 cca on the battery which is new. Don't plan to do any hefty winching. Maybe just the odd self recovery or helping others or pulling trees.
I understand I need some heavy wiring so I'm gonna get some that is 450-500amp cable. My query is that do I need a cut off switch? I understand if I have to wire this in and this will also run whatever current is coming out the winch, so I need a fairly hefty switch.
Is just running an earth and live straight to and from the Batt/winch a good idea? Don't want to be hindering the winch by breaking the circuit at less than half load.
Cheers
