I agree -Optima 6 volt, Decent generator or alternator if you are not a purist, Good cables and Good grounds and there is no need for anything other than 6V-The only benefit I can see with 12V is if you blow a bulb on tour you can buy one easily at any shop. However for me its easier (and cheaper) just to carry a couple of spare 6V bulbs -which I have never used ! I have turn signals on mine as well as an AM /FM radio all running well on 6V -Karl
