Real-World Scenario
Battery dead on a cold Monday morning? Cold weather is the number one killer of car batteries. The chemical reaction that produces electricity slows dramatically below freezing, and a battery that was marginal on Friday won't start on Monday. Our professional jump packs handle even the coldest mornings.
What NOT to Do
Don't repeatedly crank the engine when it won't start — you'll drain the battery completely and may damage the starter motor. Three attempts maximum, then call us.
