what battery do you use? and what kind of cranking amps do you need?

The battery type/group is a 10U1L type baattery. It has a 300 CCA rating. You can get them anywhere that sells small batteries. I bought mine at my local JD dealership for around $32.00. I also installed a "Battery Tender" to maintain the charge during the down time.
