Because wench is a female and winch is a tool.

Also - if possible, return in better condition than when received.

I can't think of any way that "if possible" could apply. Even if brand new it would go back with fresh grease and washed.

They are easily confused for the other. They both pull you in and if you don't have your
wiring protected the heat can cause a fire which burns you to the ground. Redhead
versions are the most dangerous.

Winch on the trailer needs a battery beside it. The 7th power wire back from the truck can not carry enough current for serious winching .
Counting on the trailer frame and in particular the hitch for a ground/chassis return connection . Is being overly optimistic.

You speak the truth, especially about the red-headed ones.

On our tow vehicles, for hauling work boats, we ran a positive cable from the battery, to the rear, connected to a battery jumper quick connect, and grounded it to the frame, close to the plug. We put the other end of the quick connect on the winch . All our vehicles had dual batteries, so we had plenty of power. And yes, we used a heavy duty, resetable circuit breaker.
