John T - Recall your EE 101 circuit theory and the concept of an "ideal current source"? Within limits, a 6 volt 3 brush generator + cutout setup might almost be considered an ideal current source. Ie. it will deliver approximately the same output current whether the load is at a nominal 6 volts or 8 volts (or 12 volts for that matter...) However from a practical standpoint, the higher the voltage the greater the RPM required before the generator will begin to charge. Also higher voltages cause faster internal heating of the generator. ---- Also.....same as you am I am not a fan of 8 volt batteries! I regard it as a "band aid" solution to an electrical deficiency elsewhere on the tractor. Better to spend $$ to find/fix the underlying problem than toss in an 8 volt battery.
