As we all should know, an Optima is 800 CCA. Generally speaking, you can only get so many watts in a given volume with a lead acid battery. Basic electrical theory tells you you give up car-starting amperage for bulb-destroying voltage. Don't make a lot of sense to me.
Old tractors don't usually have a lot of extras like radios, electrical gauges, heater blower motors, and lights. The lights they do have are usually easily replaced cheap bulbs.
