Default 2008 YDRE Battery Question

Did the 2008 YDRE originally come with 6 8V batteries or 4 12V batteries?

I have read that 6 batteries are more efficient than 8. If that's the case then I would like to swap to the 6 battery model. What would be required to change over to the 6 battery model?

Thanks

The experts will be along soon, but all ydre's I have seen prior to 2010 have a 4 12V setup. You will get more distance out of a charge with 6 8v setup, and from what i recall the only requirement is a few mods to your battery tray.

Search YDRE 8v conversion, its really easy, only requiring 8v batteries, new cables to connect the batteries, and some hardware store supplies to make brackets to keep the middle batteries in place
