Dead batteries

[HAY MAKER]

I keep a good battery in my chore tractor but my hay tractors wind up sitting an awful lot especially in this Texas drought, both are about 95hp diesel of course anyway changing out these batteries has really gotten old, both have 2 batteries and are a PITA to change thinking about just running dead batteries and using one of these ?

Will work fine until you get a short inside a battery. Then it will not work and if it does you will burn out the alternatior. Cheaper to keep good batteries.

Just get a battery tender and mount it. They work very well.

I keep a battery tender on all of my equipment when its not being used continuously. I hate the bs of wanting to jump on a piece of equip. and it not starting and being ready to roll when i am.

My tractors sit a lot since I quit bailing hay.
I put one of these on each tractor and just plug them in.
