    My 2018 F250 just broke 100k miles and the batteries are about to need to be changed. At the last service, Ford warned me the batteries are getting weak. I was just wondering if anyone has any experience upgrading to a Lithium battery. From what I've read one Lithium can replace both Lead...

    We have a 2008 F250 that we use for a daily driver and for camping. We like to disperse camp/boondock and we are looking at a way to power a 12v cooler, our LED lights and charge our USB devices. Since we are typically out in the boonies without cell service, we don’t want to use either of our 2...

    The battery light came on in my 2014 F-350 Platinum SD (with dual alternators). After hours of tinkering we traced what seems to be the problem to the yellow wire in the driver's side plug at alternator. When my mechanic grounded the wire the battery light went off. I checked the ohms in the...

    Hi all, I recently realized that my battery voltage gauge in the cluster is always pegged at 18v, no matter what the truck is doing. The the key is off, the needle drops down to about 11v and goes no further. It would seem to me that the gauge is faulty. I pulled up the volt gauge on my Bully...
