Installed a new battery under the hood. Used a standard lawn tractor battery. I plow with the 700 so I use the winch, lights and sometimes the wipers. Its too much for the little oem battery. So far, so good. The bonus is if you have to boost it you don't have to remove the seat.
Anyone know how many amps the engine charging system puts out?

  1. 700-4

  2. 1000-5
My 700 always charged at 14.2 volts. So dividing the 450 watts by 14.2 volts = 31.6 Amps or let’s just call it 32 Amps. The main fuse is a 40 Amp so that sounds about right.
