for the right reasons its a good thing, when i say that my jubilee was half converted when i bought it so i completed it 20 years ago, i use this tractor as a work tractor and having 12 volt lites helps with night mowing, when i have to, also it allows the use of trailer brakes if im pulling one large enough to need more brake than the old ford has, ive got 6 volt tractors too, and they start well even cold, but they do require more work to keep everything clean bright and tight so they will start also need to use 0 or 1 gauge battery cables, 6 v gets a bad rap when somebody goes down tothe parts store to get battery cables and they sell him those chinese 4 ga cables that have 1/4 inch of plastic on them so they look like 1 gauge cables, then those 4 gauge wont carry the amps a 6volt needs to start and the battery gets blamed , h problem is with people who convert to 12 volts thinking to solve an existing electrical problem, it may do it for awhile then it will get worse and they'll be in the same spot as before, when they should have spent time tracking down whats wrong with the original system first, if doing a full restoration to a show tractor 6 v is a must if the unit came as 6volt new
