I am talking one piece of equipment. Also, one that when "the curtains go up" it needs to do its thing and do it well. Nobody is talking about buying new for the sake of buying new when the old one does well enough with a minimum of coaxing. For that matter it does not take a new planter to do a first rate job in the field. JD MaxEmerge has been out for over forty years and I know of units that are not pretty but the critical parts have been maintained. Could not tell the difference between the job it did and a similar unit brand new off the dealer's lot. I might still have my old 7000 if it was not eaten out from rust. It was pretty rusty when I got it but got over twenty years out of it but decided for the cost of seed and the pursuit of profit that it was time I got something that could use current monitor technology and have a frame truly heavy enough for no-till or minimum till applications. The planter in question is basically 1950's technology that its owner expects is going to match a new planter in 2017 in terms of performance.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
