Racinbob 12,523 #1 Posted 3 hours ago Yes, that's a 12 volt battery. Obviously not a tractor. The generator was due for a walk and yesterday I figured it was as good a day as any to do that. I turned the key and listened to silence. I don't think we're going to gut much of that storm that's fixin to hammer areas south of here but I'm glad I found out under better conditions. 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
