This sure looks like a good buy. Think how many batteries you can rejuvenate.

How does that work Tom? -
I assume it's bottles of the blue liquid that helps remove sulphation, but I'm not sure. For such a low price, I'd just use it as a display, but even if you use it, you can replace the empty containers and still have a nice display.Originally posted by BNCHIEF View PostComment

Some of the newer battery chargers have a feature to rejuvenate sulfated batteries.
I'm wondering if it's worth trying one.
Does anyone here own one, how well does it work, what brand is it, and how much did it cost? Thanks09-29-2017, 10:00 PM -
I've noticed that on some tractor sites people have started using garden tractor batteries on smaller tractors, like 8Ns and such. The thought is that with as much as 340 cca available in these smaller batteries, and their cheaper prices, (about 1/3 that of a typical 12v battery), they are ok for something that is used very little, sits around a lot, and doesn't probably last for too long anyway....05-22-2018, 09:16 AM -
We've been using Optima batteries with good success in 12 volt applications with 1 wire alternators. We tried a 6 volt Optima and haven't had much success with holding a prolonged charge. Our (commercial) battery vendor won't recommend a maintainer (such as the Battery Tender Junior, etc.) for the 6 volt application unless it's a wet cell battery. Any thoughts and / or what are folks using for batteries...05-05-2018, 05:08 PM -
What sort of power source do people use when trying to do de-rusting with electrolysis?06-26-2018, 07:52 PM -
Speedway sells a drop down battery box as per the attached photo. Has anyone tried one of these? They appear to fit a group 1 or many other sizes. The bracket mounting holes are 9" o.c horiz. x 4+" high and perhaps could be secured to the cross member or frame , etc. with some mod's. The photo shows the drop down position though we haven't yet investigated clearance issues, if any.....07-30-2018, 11:43 PM

my 6 volt battery charger broke can I use a 12 volt charger in a pinch or will that destroy the battery08-11-2018, 03:23 PM -
The only thing I could find was thread in June of 2017 on script batteries. Is anyone still selling them or have they been discontinued? I want to find one but have hit a dead end. I know points are lost with the reproduction script battery. Does anyone know what the difference is in points deducted between a repro script and a modern battery? Is it arbitrary or a set deduction on the judging...06-09-2018, 10:12 PM -
I have been waiting for month for my new model a script battery ,the interesting part is that it came already charged and is maintenance free .The old type model a script battery is 7 years old and probably ok but being so old I,didn't want to take a chance . Has anyone tried one of these new type batteries06-01-2017, 06:57 PM -
This is a very handy tool to own. It's a variable power supply and battery charger with 2 ranges, 0-8 volts, and 0-16 volts. I bought mine at the local surplus store, thinking it was a working unit. It turned out it wasn't and it only put out 5 volts, which dropped to 3 volts after a couple minutes. I did some serious cleaning, and got mine to look as nice as this one on ebay. I took the case off...You do not have permission to view this gallery.

Ok, the usual choices for a Model A battery, are either a 6v, or a 12v.
What if i want both? 6v for the main system, and a 12v for any auxiliary equipment.
What i believe is a 6v alternator will charge a 12v battery, but not at the same time as it is charging the 6v system. (voltage regulation conflict, right?)
So, is it possible to route a switch in the system...06-29-2018, 08:30 PM
