Since Winter is upon us, with the added drain on batteries, I figured I would share my back-up plan for a weak or dead battery.
Rockford Consumer Products makes a Lithium Ion hand sized Jump Starter (6.5" ×3"× 1.25") , p/n. RFDPPJS2976DLX.
The carrying case with all leads, charger etc , is 10"×7"× 2". This is NOT a battery replacement, but a jump starter for weak or dead battery that your charging system can maintain once started.
I bought mine at CarQuest Auto parts , around $115. It will also charge phones, tablets .I would send pix, but the kb range listed for forum pix is smaller than my phone file size reduction .
Anyway, I tested by running battery down, then jumped it; worked ! This will fit in glovebox, great peace of mind item.
Remember, NOT an auxiliary battery, but a jump start for discharged or weak batteries .
Beats walking !
