Re: [RCSE] Solenoids for winches

[Michael Lachowski]

I use Stancor 586-902  586 series DC power contactors.  Rated at 200A 
continuous and 600A inrush.  Silver contacts.  Newark part number is 
44F3645,  $43 each.  Many years of reliable service on 6 F3b winches.

Has anybody used a continous duty solenoid for a winch rather than the standard 
ford style solenoids we have been using for many years?
I am refitting two BS F3B winches with dual solenoids and am considering a pair of Pollack continous duty solenoids, p/n 11-2570, with the dual LED warning lights from Cal Postuma. 

I'm thinking this turns out to be as near to bullet proof an operating system 
as needed.
Any comments, thoughts or ideas ?
Regards, Dave Corven.
