What type of battery is standard in a Wattman train?

Wattman trains are equipped with semi-traction lead-acid batteries (8 x 6V) as standard. These batteries are proven to be reliable, efficient, safe, and cost-effective. For demanding operations, an optional Lithium-Ion upgrade is available, offering extended autonomy and reduced charging times.
