Not trying to hijack the thread but I just installed a 8v battery in my SM and it had nothing to do with voltage.
When the SM came to me it had an 8v battery that was pretty much dead (would only hold a charge for maybe a start or two). I've always been of the "if it's setup right, 6 volts will do the trick" group. Well I went to a bunch of different battery places looking for a group 3 battery. You would not believe how hard it is to find one these days! When I did find a place that could get one it would have been back ordered for 4 to 6 weeks. Then he said "oh, and you're not going to like the price", after tax almost $200 bucks, yikes...
I asked if he could get an 8v battery, he said he could have one tomorrow. So for $70 bucks my SM starts like a champ. I just built some wood spacers to take up the extra room in the battery box.
