Ronin electric ascender

Very cheap!

Like $1250. Imagine the wear and tear it would have saved on your bicep, etc.

Bad news for Wraptors.
 
Id be curious to see how long the batteries last... at some point i would imagine that a powered ascender/descender will pretty much take over the rope access world, and make it much more accessible to the average guy. Like maybe start taking over some stuff done with lifts today (construction industry).
 
Keeps very skilled workers in the game much longer. No exhaust, or hot muffler, ability to descend, 1000' on a charge.

I think now they are advertised at $1250, Wraptors are under $3k with rope, and two stroke is cheap for the little it uses.
 
Nick got to try one recent. The machine has a tendency to abraid the out side of the rope too much for my tastes. Wraptor is bullet proof IMO and easy on my rope. Takes a licking and keeps on ticking. I think mine is 9 years old now. This is the rope after 10 ascents.
