Re: batteries (score: 1): Author: David Councill <dcouncil@imt.net>; Date: Thu, 23 Jul 1998 10:19:25 -0600; Rich, I agree that the two 6 volt batteries in series would double the voltage and not the amperage (basic electronics). However, I'm not sure that cranking amps and amperage equate to the same thing; /html/mgs/1998-07/msg01248.html (7,278 bytes)

Re: batteries (score: 1): Author: ccrobins <ccrobins@ktc.com>; Date: Thu, 23 Jul 1998 12:55:42 -0500; Hi Rich, I agree that the two 6 volts may deliver the 350 amps for longer than the the single 12 volt. The capacity of the battery is directly proportional to the plate area of the cells. The sixes s; /html/mgs/1998-07/msg01249.html (6,451 bytes)

The total cold cranking amps are far superior than two 6's. You will probably be pleased if you use an Exide or Interstate battery. Good luck. Micha; /html/mgs/1996-12/msg01702.html (7,483 bytes)
