    Battery Info

    My 2022 Massey Ferguson 4707 tractor has a dead battery. The date of 09/11/2021 is on the battery, so I'm guessing that's how old it is. I bought a battery for my wife's van last month, and the guy at NAPA said that batteries only last 3 years on modern cars because of all the electronics...

    2019 NH Workmaster 75 Battery Group Size?

    Howdy everyone, I'm new to the forum but it looks like a good resource for the future. I help my uncle out on our family's hobby farm. We have a small herd of milking shorthorns located in Central NY. Last year we purchased a second hand 2019 NH Workmaster 75 with less than 1000 hours on it. The...

    Do you discharge a battery a little before you charge it?

    When I was a kid helping out is a shop, the meticulous owner told me to ALWAYS turn the lights on for two minutes before a battery charge to drain off surface resistance to a charge. Is this a wive's tale?

    Do you bring your battery inside for the winter?

    I usually charge all my batteries with a smart charger late in December and then again in the spring and that's been fine. But I have a 6V "weak" battery in my IH Super C that I'm thinking of bringing into the heated garage for the winter. Maybe others like my old truck and some tractors. I...

    Changed battery in LS XJ2025H

    The original battery was getting so weak, it would barely crank, after 9 years. It was a Rocket GB60L group 85 battery, hard to find. Today I replaced it with a group 24F with 710 CCA. After taking measurements, I had determined a group 24 would fit in the slightly oversized battery...

    Lowe's/Kobalt 80 volt battery tool system: a cautionary tale.

    80v Kobalt System was a chainsaw, leaf blower, hedge trimmer, hedge-trimmer-ona-pole, pole saw, edger, string trimmer, maybe more. Local Lowe's had them all on display. Bought the chainsaw- liked it, went back and bought the hedge trimmer- liked it. Most or all tools are available with or...

    AGM Battery for Old Kubota?

    A tester says my Kubota L3710's 2019 Autocraft Gold non-AGM battery is reaching the end of the line. Is there any point in getting an AGM battery for an old tractor? I don't know whether an AGM battery will like the Kubota's charging system.

    New Battery

    I purchased a new battery for the Jeep the other day after noticing the old one was going on 8 years old. While doing the research, I noticed that prices have increased drastically and yet, warranties have been reduced. Sign of the times I guess. At any rate, while prepping and installing, I...

    Load test the battery.

    I see it over and over, a person has a starting issue. It just clicks, turns over slow or other weird electrical issues. They say “the battery is good”. The first thing to do is load test the battery. These also give you the voltage of the battery but that alone isn’t enough. The picture...

    Another Battery!

    I went out to use the tractor and move some wood chips around. Turned the key and nada, zilch, no clicking, no lights on dash, nothing. 5 years and 21 days on the Legend from Napa. I was sort of surprised because ever since I put that Legend in on 8-01-2019 it's had a BatteryMinder 1500...

    Is there any way to bring a normal led acid battery back to life that just won't keep a charge? I have my brother-in-law's excavator at my house and it is in need of batteries.

    Ford Golden Jubilee Battery

    I have a Ford Golden Jubilee that was a gift from my uncle before he passed away.

    Minor battery explosion- '99 F250.

    Hadn't started my 7.3 diesel for a few months but it's been on a battery tender most of that time. Hood had been up. Fired it up and got an immediate boom and heard something hit the barn wall. Turns out, it blew a (3 cell) battery cap off one battery. Looks like one cell is barely covered...

    Good battery lawn mower & string trimmer set?

    I need tools to clean up where the tractor-mounted rotary mower can't fit. Often the weeds are knee-high or more before I get to it. Trimming is done only a few times per year, more to keep fire danger down than for aesthetics. So I need something heavier than just lawn equipment. It looks like...

    Yanmar FX32 battery

    The battery was stolen out of my Yanmar FX32 tractor. I called my local car parts store and they said they could get a battery that would fit in the space, but it's best to have the part number, to make sure I get the correct cranking amps. I don't have the receipt from when I bought that...

    Battery Jump Packs
