Makita instead of e-wincher
A really affordable alternative for trying out electric assistance. Please always ensure that the adapter is firmly clamped in the drill chuck; if it slips forcefully ten times, it may be worn out.

Particularly suitable for the Milwaukee cordless angle drill FRAD2
I use the adapter with the Milwaukee cordless angle drill FRAD2. with 13mm drill chuck. This machine has an enormous torque of 120NM and is particularly suitable.

Perfect for hoisting and furling sails
Aluminum is a more forgiving material against the winch. Perfect with 90 nm.

Perfect
With a 110 Nm Bosch drill/driver it is possible to operate the winches effortlessly and even to lift a man weighing more than 70 kg to the mast.

Functions!
The part works fine. However, you should have a very powerful cordless screwdriver. It should be 60 Newton meters. And watch out, that thing can hit back pretty hard! It's best to hold it with both hands. Otherwise there is a risk of a sprained wrist.

very useful
if you do not want to invest in a very expensive electric winch and not too much current on board

Great team player
Perfect for hoisting the mainsail. It is a precious help from a certain age. Perfect.

Finally a solution
For sailors who are getting older ... Auxiliary system at a price quite affordable, unlike other electric cranks!

Excellent insert for screwdrivers
Unfortunately, the screwdriver runs too fast. I have to try an impact wrench for the final judgment.

Good product but really requires a screwdriver of at least 50 Nm. The surface marks quickly

does its job!
Hyper resistant alloy. Used with M18 BLDD2-502X Drill Driver MILWAUKEE BRUSHLESS 18V 5,0Ah 85 Nm. For a GV docéanis 411. Just pay attention to the return of the screwdriver, you have to hold it.

Drill bit
Good light product fits well to winches without play

Nice gadget, but not suitable for daily use.
This adapter requires a REALLY strong electric screwdriver. Used it with a 35Nm screwdriver, which I had on board, but it was much to weak - half way raising the main sail the screwdriver begun to smoke. With a 60Nm screwdriver it worked better, but you have to be very gentle on the trigger - even at slow setting the battery screwdrivers produce too many revolutions per minute. All in all i dont feel comfortable using a 300€ screwdriver in salty spray, even the best one wont last more than a season.

conforms
consistent with advertising; works well at the genoa winch level but difficult for mainsail retractor; in reality this adapter is ok but be sure that your screwdriver is powerful enough otherwise the result will be disappointing

Excellent solution
It works perfectly when coupled with a suitable power drill. To hoist mainsail on First 36.7 (P13.85m) I used Makita 115Nm. It went on very well!
