    I *think* as long as those specs can handle my motors, then comunicating it with my arudino should be no problem.
    I'm pretty much just using the arudino as a programmer and serial connection at this point anyway.

    this device is rated at 10amps with peak 60amps

    my winch motor runs at 25amps..

    Do you think this h-bridge will handle it if I install a computer fan ontop of the bridge?
