HI all. It's all very interesting. I my case, I sometimes find my n
down too far for the engine to start from leaving something on. 
My solution is to jump start from my other vehicle parked along side. My method is
a little different. I wqant to use my other battery to start the vehicle with the low battery,
but I don't want to waste any of the good battery on the low battery.
Therefore, I disconnect the ground terminal of the low battery from the car
and attatch the jumper bables to the positve terminal and its attachet cable
and to the car"s ground cable, not the battery ground. I then use the other car's battery to start the car with the disconnecte


d low batery.I can
then disconnect the jumpers and the car is running on its own alternator
I CAREFULLY, by touching only the cableconnector, sip it back onto the negative battery post. The car can 5hen rechrge the batt


ery.
