One of the best $39.00 I ever spent is for a battery jump start pack. This thing will jump start, be a 12v power supply, do away with jumper cables, is a compressor and a light.
You can throw it in the trunk if you have any doubts about your battery, also. Never have to worry about reverse polarity blowing an alternator or how you are going to get another car close enough to jump.
They have them everywhere, parts stores, Harbor Freight, Costco.
I dont think you would ever regret the money.

Sent the wife to Florida one year and we knew the battery would be dead in the van. Sent her with a Battery Tender Jumper Pack. That van fired right up after sitting for 5 months. The lights wouldn't come on in the car it was that dead. The lithium battery worked like a charm.
