new winch brand

[nicks90]

i think it looks good actually, speed specs are simillar to a standard 8274-50

warn
12V DC PERFORMANCE SPECS
0 73.4
2000(910) 22  
4000(1810) 12
6000(2720) 9.50
8000(3630) 6.10

Tigerz
Lbs       NO 1500 3000 6000 9000 12000
Ft/min  86.9 26.9 12.1  9.5   7.2    4.9

might not be up there in terms of a comp winch and upgradable, but certainly for a self recovery winch or a rear winch on a comp truck that has space issues it looks like it is a nice speedy winch.
their 9000lbs twin speed is even faster as well!


edited to add: google search comes up with alot of positive reviews from the land of oz, in both the patrol and yota forums.

Lot of people making noise about these winches in Aus and the general reaction is there OK 

Tiger are doing some cute stuff at present  and are thinking outside the box which can only be a good thing for all of us 

Do be aware though that many winches offer similiar figures to 8274's but most never quite make the grade.

I would love to test one.

It is only for spooling out and no load retrieval therefore is this just a mechanical version of Bowyers Turbo box??

I have TDS9.5 deep drum with "turbo". When comes to winching i am really hard on this winch( although i am not no-brainer). Situation when Superwinch will stop this one is still pulling. I am using "turbo" mode very often also in stuck situations. So based on my experiences "turbo" mode is more than faster no load retrieval option, but for me worked very well also in let say middle load pulls.

As for this new winch, it is interesting to see that someone manufactured twin speed winch something like hydraulic winches sucha a milemarker but in electrics. In my opinion only downside of this winch is that you have to change speeds manualy direct on gearbox.

Considering that Gigglepin have made so many other gearing modifications to the Warn 8274, is a dual-speed box not possible?

Does their winch really need to be any quicker?

We are actually launching a dual speed this year......

It is a bolt to our already existing winches

Watch this space

Ps: One point that i should make, yes the Tiger is a dual speed, but still only has a single motor.....

Looks OK....not implying anything but appears to be the same colour and stickers as the e-bay special I have in the shed

[forestrynick]

is your ebay special two speed?

[andy r]

No it isn't but with a bit of tinkering in a machine shop in China I'm sure it could be !
