50 amp cord reel

[bobmerriken]

What is everyone's thoughts on the power morryde cord reel vs the hand crank one? I am not sure what I should go with for my 50 amp cable. If you went with the power, what 12 volt source did you use.

Thanks

I have the hand crank version for my GD 260RD. The basement in my unit is not really that big but I mounted the hand crank in my basement right next to the Nautilus control panel. Much easier to store my power cable now rather than coiling the cable up (especially when cold) and storing the cable in my basement with all my other stuff.

We have the powered reel in our 310GK. Works great once I figured out how to guide the cable. Keeps things tidy and great in the cold.

Only downside is its magnet for my bald head when digging around down there. Causes profanity level pain.

I just installed the Moryde hand crank one. It works grate doesn't take alot of room and all it took to install was for crews which came with it.

Went with the powered version. Use a jackery power source by adding a 12v plug to the leads on the reel. Have had to charge the battery about twice a year. One of my favorite upgrades.
