8 volt batteries and a tweaked voltage regulator was often used on IHC Ms in Minnesota, Dakotas in winters- and JDs As, 60,70s got same treatment. As for chargeing 8V battery? a 12 volt trickle charger or 4/6 amp 12 volt motorcycle/utility battery charger works good for the 8 volt golf cart batteries and utilities some times used in emergencies for winter use on a couple IHCs that had the snowshovel duty in northern Iowa and on some early VW bus enigines, pre-1966 Beetles. A couple 8 volt batteries are same size as the 6 volt batteries so fit in trays, lights will work with minimal burnout usually. The 8v quick swap works in emergency and a little general usage, covers the dirty cable ends problems awhile. As others noted- it is NOT the professionally preferred method, but it does work for many light users.
