Battery Issue

[rcb]

MVers: No batteries in my new 923 GL purchase. Is there a problem
using 2 batteries vs. 4 ?? My 925A2 came from GSA with only 2 and
seems to be OK... Your thoughts...

You will be fine until cold weather hits.

I run 2 car/light truck bats in afew of my 5 tons. No problems even when cold, but I don't run 'em much when it's below 20 degs.

I use 2 908Ds and it cranks just fine

I have 2 8Ds in the 819, plantly of start

Would that be the famous "Flying 819"?

I'd go with 2 Cat batteries and a block heater for the PA winters. Cat rates their CCA at 0 degrees vs. everyone else at 32 degrees.

908D from Deka -- it's a big battery
