Correction (I think):
A ballast wouldn’t necessarily make a difference. The juice is either going to ground through the points or, with a resistor, some is going to ground through the points and what isn’t is being consumed by the heat sink function of the resistor.
Experts please weigh in.

At one time I had charging problems due to a bad wiring harness. I had a new 300A battery. Takes about 1 1/2 hours to mow my property. A fully charged battery would start & now 3 times before I had to re-charge the battery. It maybe would have gone longer. I just didn’t want to get caught on far end of property & tractor not start.
Also don't let your battery set in a discharged condition it won't last long

I got it set on a battery Tender. so after every use it gets plugged back up.
