Default 12V Power Source for my workbench

What do y'all use for a 12 Volt power source when working on parts at the workbench? I am working on rebuilding a wiper motor and don't want to bring the motor back and forth to the car to test it.

Thanks! :cheers:

Ron

Battery charger for the small stuff. For anything big that requires more amps than the charger is rated for, add a battery to the setup.

Those portable jump starters are great for stuff like that...
