I have the previous generation of this winch on my H3, I really like it except it doesn't have a wireless remote - and adding one on isn't as easy as it would seem.

I was all over this deal...bought one yesterday.

Screw the wireless...diggle's Smittybilt with the wireless was energizing itself from some other signal. Once again...technology isn't always what its cracked up to be. The remote usually just lays around in your glovebox until the battery dies anyway. Mark my words...next generation will use an app on your phone. Jeez.

I use my winch almost weekly, and haven't had the issue - the only issue I've had is water got inside the box and caused havoc. I do carry my wired controller, just in case, but again... not the issue.

The new X2O has a switch to turn off the wireless when not in use to prevent unintended movement.

True...but 4WParts is clueless. Nobody there can tell you if the ones they are selling have the switch or not. Its a great place to buy parts...but don't ask questions...
