RE: Powerpole connectors for jump starting
Great setup, compact and versatile. But I have often found that Murpys Law
gets in the way, that the vehicle that needs the assistance is parked in
just the wrong place or angle to get up next to it with normal length
jumpers.  I carry a jump start pack and have used it many more times for
other vehicles than I have in the Westy.  It also has the advantage of being
a portable 12v power source for other things (and is my standard supply for
my telescope setups).  And it can be charged underway with the included 12v
charging cable or from 110v at home or in campgrounds.  Disadvantage is that
it takes up space.
