Just charged up all of my boat batteries. Each battery took under a
minute to get to "FUL" on the charger. This is something to do once a
month, unless you have one of those reliable, low output, always
connected chargers.

Eh, I put one in the wood splitter, and another in the 8-N Ford
tractor...

They'll stay charged all winter


My 8N is still set up with 6 volts!


I changed my grandpa's over about 25 years ago. it starts a whole lot
easier....


I had a 43' Ford built flat fender jeep a lot of years ago, and we went to
an 8 volt battery. Started a lot easier and did not screw up the lights,
etc. Unfortunately, someone used the nice towbar to take it away without
permission.
