I have edited the title of this post to be more useful. Please use descriptive titles, especially in the Tech board - it will help people help you, and help others to find information later. Thanks!

Either way works fine but with 6 volt you just have to be fastidious about keeping good clean connections. My dozer is 6 volt and it works well but it only has five or six electrical connections total.
