Reviews of Time Bandit Electronic Cargo Strap Winder by Truckers

Vicki was pleased to learn about the Time Bandit Electronic Cargo Strap Winder just before going to the 2012 Mid America Trucking Show.

Considering that at that time, Mike was hauling a flatbed upon which he has to strap his loads, she thought that this device was ingenious for saving drivers time (and hence money).

There's a bit of background on how the inventor of the device came to design it in a June 29, 2012 article on Overdrive Online.

According to the article, it was minus 6 degrees (well below freezing) in St. Cloud, Minnesota, on the day that Johnny White got stopped by the DOT for not having his straps rolled up.

The fine for him was $368. (Ouch!)

According to their YouTube video embedded just below,

The Time Bandit is a 12 volt device that can roll up a cargo strap in 8.4 seconds. Setup and operation are quick and easy and its uses are limitless. Made for the trucking industry it can also be used in the agricultural industry where cargo straps must be used to secure loads such as hay, tractors or lawnmowers. With the accessory reel, it can also be used to roll up extension cords, power cords, Christmas lights, and even to re-roll electric fencing for live stock.
