Ronstan’s Orbit Winches™ are the new benchmark in high performance alloy winches. With a combination of fresh design thinking and proven manufacturing expertise, Orbit Winches™ weigh significantly less and offer lower line entry heights than any other winch in their class.
Remarkably easy to service, they require no tools for disassembly or maintenance. The machined aluminium drums feature the same Power Ribs™ that many sailors will recognize from Andersen Stainless Steel Winches®, well-known for their impressive line grip, smooth control, and minimal rope wear.
Power Ribs™
The exceptional grip provided by the Power Ribs™ offers a multitude of benefits: requiring fewer wraps around the drum, reducing the load held in the self-tailer, and encouraging the line to slide easily upward on the drum to avoid riding turns. The non-abrasive drum surface extends the service life of running rigging and allows smooth and controlled easing, even under high loads.
No Tools Required
Full disassembly and reassembly can conveniently be performed without the need for any tools. To remove the drum, pull back the spring-loaded release latch, and a slight anti-clockwise rotation will allow the self-tailing arm to be lifted from the winch. From there, the drum can be removed from the winch's center stem.
When completing reassembly in reverse order, an audible click confirms positive engagement between the self-tailing arm and bayonet notches on the center stem. These notches allow the self-tailing arm to be locked in one of eight positions at rotational increments of 45 degrees.
Features:
Lightweight machined aluminum drum
Distinctive Power Ribs™ ensures a controlled grip at all times, whether tensioning or easing
Proven Andersen winch gearing configuration
No tools are required for configuration and servicing
Sprung self-tailing jaws to accept 6-10mm line
Materials:
Hard anodized aluminum drum and center stem, aluminum self-tailing arm
So haven’t gotten to strictly use it just yet hardcore wise. Turns on, charges in no time, not to heavy, can’t complain about the unit itself. Now the app on the other hand, looks and feels on the cheap side big time. Very like Chinese website feeling if that makes sense.

I thought the line was going to be of poor quality but I was surprised by the resistance. Next time I will select a more attractive color, but in terms of performance, it is 10/10

This appears to be perfectly acceptable braid. I ordered 12lb test. The line went onto my baitcasting reel easily.

I thought it was rechargeable….
I didn’t realize it took batteries, but regardless it saved me when I was in a tight spot and I lost power camping. I’ll admit it, I was glad to have it.
