LOL on using the battery clamps over the lawn tractor battery lugs. I'm sure it works, but it just seems 'wrong'.
Because I do use the SA all year, including when it's well below 0 in the pre-dawn, plowing that 'solid rain' out the driveway, I did pick up a group 26 battery (Exide) at TSC. It's not a snug fit to the box like the #1, but close enough. I also saw a Group 22 battery on the shelf there - much thinner battery, fewer CCA, and more money. I'd rather not have to shim a battery in place to keep it from abrading the cables over time with daily use.
Yes, I'm considering LED's for the future, but they're still coming down in price / going up in intensity, and I'm not so concerned with the alternator keeping up now. I bought some LED 1156's a couple years ago, tried them and put them right back in the package. They put out about the same lumens as a regular 194. Would have taken them back, except I got them in a truck stop in Ohio... Newer ones are better, but still have a way to go, especially dollar per lumen.
Been too busy to get pictures of the project - just finishing 'supper' (and falling asleep over it). Now off to bed for a short few.

As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U
