Winch control box - Which one?

[koliilok]

Hey,

i searched but couldn't find what i was looking for. Today i bought a tigerz11 10000 LB winch from the vic 4x4 show, i bought it as the winch only for cheap so i need a control box, hand controller, wiring etc. I'm confused about which control box would suit best?
On ebay theres a few tigerz11 ones but they are $200, i don't mind spending that if they are good. What would people reccomend? Bearing in mind i'm trying to make it a fairly cheapish exercise.
I've heard about problems with the tigerz ones taking on water and corroding.

Any thoughts and reccomendations are much appreciated.

Following links are for illustration only..IE i haven't used these vendors and there may be cheaper/better on Ebay

Get a wireless controller (under $20) http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/12V-50ft-Winch-Wireless-Remote-Control-Set-for-Truck-Jeep-ATV-Warn-Ramsey-/170900039576?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item27ca6fa798

Get a 4 point contactor ($60 and up) http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Winch-12V-Solenoid-Control-up-to-16800LBS-/251074216095?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3a7530809f

Leads - cheapest is old welding leads if you can get them, otherwise get a sparky to make them up for you OR measure them up and buy off the shelf

Don't scrimp on the leads as they are critical to winch performance IE minimum voltage drop, max current equals best performance

Just need some cabling now and a bullbar!

Wouldn't you get the controll box with the winch if it was new. Who buys just a winch ????
