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.

I've already drilled the center of the bolt out with about 7/64" drill bit the entire length of the bolt. Only one end of the bolt is visible. I tried to use an easy out but it wasn't budging and I didn't want t
