While I'm not trying to start a 'generator vs. alternator' argument, I WILL say that ever since we got a Tom Wesenberg (on the Model A side) Electronic Voltage Regulator in our generator, it has made a world of difference in performance and maintaining the battery.

Farm King 6V battery at least seven years old and still going strong!! Before they seemed to only run about 4 years or so............
