    Women's Forum: What do you do for work?

    What's the big deal with 6v batteries?

    Thank you! Either I am starting to understand this stuff more or you are responding in simpler language I understand ........... I do not know which, but I like it!!!! If 6v AGM cannot produce the benefit that 6v flooded can there is no point to getting them. I just keep reading about the...
