Two extra batteries
I am running 8 six volt batts on my cc and 2 of them are older and about to take a crap.The idea of replacing those 2 with 8 volters came to mind.My charger kicks off when it reaches 60 volts.Has anyone done this?Will it work? I am hoping for just a little extra.Thanks fellows!

Re: Two extra batteries
It's not a good idea to mix batteries like that. The internal resistance will be different and can cause issues. If anything buy 2 used 6 volt batteries. Measure the voltage on a used pair and try to match the voltage with the ones you have. (fully charged) This is the best option.

Re: Two extra batteries
When you say issues do you mean life of the batteries or something more severe?

Re: Two extra batteries
Can you say EXPLOSION? It's possible.
