My batteries keep dying and won't recharge!

I'm on the other side of the planet from you gentlemen. I still have my 1953 AL-110 running on 6v positive ground and a mechanical fuel pump. When it causes me some/more problems I will look at changing it and I sincerely hope when/if those problems occur that all you learned gentlemen are still contributing to this forum and debating the issues to the benefit of us all as that is how we "rookies" (an expression we don't really use down here) learn. My thanks to you all.

There are at least three stores in town here that stock 6 volts in group 1, 2, 4 and 3EH. Prices are the same for "commercial" batteries" regardless of voltage. There are other stores that I don't frequent that also may stock them, I ...

The physical size of the batteries.

Also the capacity (cca) tend to go up with physical size.

I just watched a video about what makes bulls mad.

Think I'm going to a group 2 6 volt

Think I'm going to a group 2 6 volt

I put a group 2 in my KB-1 panel, with fat cables and ground to starter mount bolt, thing spins almost as fast as 12v. and doesn't drain nearly as fast, totally worth it,

put 6v. halogen headlight bulbs in and you'll swear you went 12 volt,

Looking more into this now .... called Interstate ,, group 4? battery #4-xhd 12 3/4 long 7 1/8 deep x 9 " tall . 1000 cca . 6 volt 3 cell
Is that too much ??

By the way , I took your advise Jon on the Halogens ,,nice !
I enlarged my battery box when I put the truck together to accomidate that 8 volt , it must have been a group 4?
