LOL I didn't say it was going to happen soon. But the day will come. And when I say 6 volt I'm not talking about the deep cycle. I'm talking regular automotive.

And who care about how may hits you got. In a rural farming area I walked into a parts store to buy a larger roll around battery charger . The only ones in stock that charged 6 volt were little cheap things. I wanted something decent. Everything they had it stock that was larger and had a decent boost were all 12 volt only. That was fine with me. I'd already converted all of my 6 volt stuff. And when do I convert? As soon as I buy something that's 6 volt. Send all that 6 volt junk to the crusher right away too.

What amuses me is the claim about how reliable a generator is over an alternator. I remember back in the late 60's and through most of the 70's when there were still a lot of service stations. And every one at a minimum had a box of brushes, some bushings and a hand crank commentator lathe. Plus most had a small selection of voltage regulators too (that's when the average new car buyer traded every 2 years). Now repair shops don't carry anything like that and alternators last 150,000 miles or so without an issue. Heck back in the genny days most gas engines were getting close to a 2nd engine rebuild by 150,000. :lol: :lol:
