Ok, I want some other kind of battery in my tractor.

What is AVAILABLE?
1. If price is no object.

STM5-180R's. NiCDs with serious capacity.

2. If price is an object.

BB600 cells. I recommend either going with 60 or 90. Then put another 30in the weight box in the winter. You will be able to blow snow forever.

I still like the BB600's. They've been in the tractor for a few yearsnow, and just keep on purring. I water them in the spring, fall, and usethe on-board charger to keep them happy.
