Re: (ET) external charging

[Jim Coate <jbc coate org>]

As others have said, you can use one 12-volt charger and charge 2 
batteries at a time, so takes 3 times as long. All without disturbing 
the original wiring.

Or... you can use three 12-volt chargers at once if you happen to have 
such around. The one catch is the chargers must be isolated, or else 
you'd have to disconnect the batteries from the tractor. The good news 
is that most all automotive type 12-volt charger are isolated, which is 
pretty easy to tell as they will have a heavy transformer inside.

Good luck.
