I'm looking for an alternative battery. Something that is not so big and heavy. Would a motorcycle battery do the trick? Or something that size, like a riding mower battery. Something that gives me the performance to run the motor but not the bulk. I know that it will not last as long on a charge but like I said, I only need it for 5 or 10 minutes each time out.
I was hoping someone out there has had experience with what works and what doesn't work. Any other ideas
Thanks,
Bigsky
