Default What's a reasonable number of times to be asked to give a jump start?

I have successfully swapped the battery without losing the voltage to

And me, used a small 12v SLA battery, plugged into lighter socket via
a fused lead. You probably have to put the ignition switch into the
"aux" position to get power to the lighter socket and thus a circuit
to power the car when the main battery is disconnected. Don't turn to
"run" or "start"... (that's why I used a fused lead).
