WOW, you guys have gotten decked.
For me, all electric is a close second to hydro. I definitely dig your Snowbear setup, and I'm leaning that way if a full hydro doesn't come out soon. Clean and simple, I love it. I had a ATV with a plow setup, that was all electric, with a linear actuator up/down and manual left/right. Super sweet setup and SIMPLE. The key is to not over-complicate it. That Western on my Dodge is a "simple" early 90s setup but a PITA compared to the ATV or Jeep setups I had/got. It's the worst of all worlds - requires the charging/wiring/connections/grounds to be operating perfect AND has all the BS leaks/fittings/rust of the hydro. For me, all mechanical hydro or all electrical. That hybrid system is bad at everything lol.
What is needed on the Rox is a power takeoff pump. Electric actuators are slow but can be used in many applications. I have several cylinders in boxes, left over from razing the bed in my motorhome. There is a Canadian company that specializes all sorts of robotics,lift cylinders, etc. they were helpful pointing me in the right direction for my application....my guess if I had nothing to do, I might look into rigging up a angle Bluetooth set up.
K.I.S.S.
