What do you recomend for a dead batery booster?

I just keep a good set of LONG jumpers in the car. If I have a problem, I
hook them up to my battery and look at passing cars with my thumb out
hitchhiker style. Of course, you can probably buy a new battery cheaper
than one of those gadgets.

And as cheap as a :good: set of long jumpers.
A 25 foot set of 1/0 cable is $250 just for the cable at $5 per foot,
and then you need good ends too.
A good set of Goodall 500 amp clams is about $75, so $325 for a set of
500 amp 25 foot cables.

I never pay more than $10.00 for jumper cables.
But they are not "good 25 foot" cables. Likely neither good nor 25
