Hi Joe, I'm with Mark as using snatch block(s) will be a real asset to your winch. With a single pulley snatch block you cut your line load by 1/2 but double the travel time. Example: If the load on your winch is 10000lbs and 10ft/min line speed, then your line load is 10000lbs. By adding one single line snatch block line load is now close to 5000lbs and 5ft/min. By adding a double line snatch block your line load would be 2500lbs and travel speed at 2.5ft/min At the same time you lower the amp draw of the winch and thats where your having a problem. Your drawing too many amps from a single battery. If you draw too many amps too fast from a battery it will severaly cut down the battery life. Golf cart battery's are the best bang for the buck. The Trojan T-105 6v is rated at 220 amp/hr and about $63eh. If you buy from a golf course or a battery dealer they have a 6 battery special for about $325. It takes six batterys for some carts. I haven't checked the price for the newer 48v carts. You would need two in series to get 12vdc then two more in parralle to up the amp draw too 660amp/hrs. All six battery's would give you 880amp/hrs in a 12vdc configuration. Below is a great website that explains rigging. T_Bone
