Re. my question about jump starters a couple of weeks ago, thanks to those who responded. I ended up getting one of these https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B074V69Y9C/ref=sxbs_sxwds-stvpv2_1?pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_p=1671752047&pd_rd_wg=x0E86&pf_rd_r=MYQFERTYG39NBQFT6B40&pf_rd_s=desktop-sx-bottom-slot&pf_rd_t=301&pd_rd_i=B074V69Y9C&pd_rd_w=abn67&pf_rd_i=db+power+jump&pd_rd_r=bf08f458-2649-4b65-a80c-a260556461b6&ie=UTF8&qid=1521192683&sr=1
and am now wondering why I didn't know about this kind of magic before.
It came with a 35% charge, plugged it in and it was at 100% after a few hours. Hooked it up to the dead battery on my jeep (sitting through the cold snap for a few weeks without being driven), turned the key and it started straight away. Charge had dropped to 96%.
Sorry if this is old news for you lot but, for someone who has zero interest in cars other than that they get you from the proverbial A to B, this is the best £80 I've spent.
