9 volt Battery for WD-45

[nomind]

I was givena 9 voly battery for Allis that has the same dimensions as a 6 volt, can anyone recommend that I use it without causing damage, and will it charge.

It should work without problems the generator will charge it I was told by a rebuilder that the generator on my Avery A would charge the 12 volt battery so I tried it and it worked the only possible damage would be if you have 6 volt lights or if you used the starter for too long say over 30 seconds but I don't think you'll have any trouble

I think you have an 8 volt battery. 4 fill caps on a L/A battery is 8 volts, 2 volts per cell.

Your right about 4 caps , my guess is the guy that give it to me didn't know the voltage either. Thanks for the info.

All light bulbs are marked for either 6 or 8 volt so they are designed to handle the 8 volts without problems.
