I was working on a generac twin cyl generator bout a week ago the camper batt was too low to turn it over so the owner handed me a weego jump starter. I tried desperately to contain my laughter it was barely bigger than most cell phones...Ok fine I'll humor him, hooked it directly to solenoid and ground then jumped it..worked perfectly. I hate new fangled crap but this was impressive. Here's the link http://www.summitracing.com/parts/wee-js6?seid=srese1&gclid=COqWrpuVvcQCFWgV7AodISIAYg . Definitely will be carry on for my FJ.

Well I'll be damned....cell phones charging, yea, I can see that...150 cold crank amps for jump starting a car or bike?  :good:

That is impressive Jeremie

I recently bought one from a friend who accidentally ordered two - Micro Start from Anitigravity Batteries ($80).  Plugged it in to achieve full charge when I got it home.  A couple days later had to replace a headlight in wife's Corolla which required removing the battery.  While the battery was out, hooked the Micro Start up to the cables and it started right up.  Got done with the Corolla and pulled the cables off the battery in my Explorer (4.0 V6).  Hooked the micro start to the cables and same result.  Carrying it on the KLR now (FJ down for brake work).  I'll probably use it more to start other people's cars/bikes than my own.  I figure the free beers that result will eventually pay for it. Then there's the peace of mind just having it along on rides.  Supposedly will hold it's charge for 6 months and can start something like 50 bikes on one charge.

Simplicity of character is the natural result of profound thought.

Wow! How?

Is it Nuc-U-Lar? Does it glow at night? Is it ever NOT warm?
