Hello again.
Thanks to everyone for their input on what kind of battery they like. I appreciate it.
My next question is how high an RPM does a machine need to run at and for how long to give the battery a decent charge from the alternator or generator or whatever does that? I do not know the difference between those two so if you can explain it to me I would appreciate that also.
Here is a little background information. I am building a pole barn, and my wheel loader is very handy for installing soffit or whatever. I like having that 7 foot long flat surface to work off vs. a ladder. But I have to constantly move the loader as I move around the building. I had my batteries go dead a couple times, (I also used the loader to get the 30 foot metal pieces up on the roof) so I have left the machine idle lately, but if it just idles I don't know if that is any better as far wearing down the batteries since I don't really work the machine much past idle. I don't start the machine as often so that is obviously a benefit.
