I am looking at a snow trip, usually base camp for a couple of days or 3, deep in the snow. I am always concerned about battery voltage and starting in the sub zero tempos especially when everything is so cold, so decided to invest in this 1300amp capacitor starter pack that sits attached to the main battery. The starter motor is supplied off this device and has an operational limit of minus 40 DegC. Good for 500,000 starts they claim as an operating life, no lithium, upper temp threshold of 80 degC - thats above what I have measured under the bonnet previously.Capacitor starter.png
It can be removed from the vehicle and used to just start a second vehicle as long as that dead vehicle battery is above 5VDC. It can be used to start a vehicle without a battery, however may not sustain the running requirements of some of the electronic controls.
