Lets add another cheep date wireless remote to this thread:
Harbor freight Badlands Wireless controller

I just picked one up for $20 using coupons, and will post the tech details after i install it on my Warn HS9500. My plan is to stealth wire it in with an on/off arm switch, so I can use either the wired remote or the Wireless one. Will be Installed very similar to resqme's, IE, mount the receiver out of harms way. It does not look waterproof enough to mount in the elements.

Full write up with pics, pinouts and wire functions to come.

Let us know what the real world range of this one is. I have 200' of rope on my winch, so they controllers that advertise 50' or 65' aren't going to cut it for me. I like the range of the OP's controller, but the actual remote seems too small, hard to use with gloves and easy to lose.

I have my remote on a lanyard that I clip to my bibs in the snow or a belt loop if I'm in summer garb. Convenient to get to and I don't lose it.

Thats a good idea. I may just get one of those and try it out. For the cost its hard to pass up.
