Jumpstarter Battery
First time – jumpstarting a car. What are some things I need to watch out for?
I bought one of those jumpstarter batteries that doesn’t require a second car. It says the car needs to be 12 AC or something? As opposed to 6 or 24… What does that mean? Any precautions or tips? It’s currently charging in my guarage and I plan on using it tomorrow.
Most cars produced in the US are 12vdc read the owners specifacations (found in your cars owners manual)for the voltage of your cars electrical system and make sure it matches your jump packs rated voltage output. If your vehicles electrical system operates at 12vdc then this battery pack should do the job. Be sure to wear the proper PPE , ie: safety glasses (read jump packs owners manual). First hookup the positive lead of the jump pack to the positive lead of the battery. Next hookup the negative lead from the jump pack to the chassis ground not the negative terminal of the battery. Keep your face away from the battery when you make this connection. just in case there is a problem. Read your jump pack manual and all the warnings before using the unit. When both connections are made then the car can be attempted to start. If the car does not turn over, then maybe there are mechanical issues that need to be repaired such as a starter. Note these instructions are not for all cars and sometimes you might need a professional to show you how to jump start your vehicle. Good Luck!
