Default HOW2 match winch torque with electric drill ?

I would like to try powering my main winches [Barient 28s] by a
[preferably] portable drill/impact wrench/etc., as at least an emergency
option.

Has anyone successfully done this ?

If yes, how'd you determine what you needed ? I see that there are now
numerous new portable ones that range up to 24v.

If portable ones are insufficient, how 'bout such as DeWalt and
Milwaukee 1/2" corded models ?

What has been found unsatisfactory about such an application ?

Appreciatively,
Courtney
