Larry,
Please be aware that the E8
(3 x 12 V batteries) had a different charger than the E10 (6 x 6 V batteries)
and larger tractors. My suspician is that the E8 charger has a lower
charging rate than the E10 thru E20 chargers. (I have been told that the
E8 charger weighs less, and the dealer manuals list different part numbers for
the transformers.) You may shorten the life of a 3 x 12 V battery bank if
you use the E10 larger charger with a higher charging rate. If you put a 6
x 6 V battery pack in an E8, you will likely just need more time to
charge.
