Not critisizing at all because you are of course correct but I think Malcopopolo was on about a small, ADV transportable, "get you out of trouble" kit that will allow the bike to be charged remotely, which it will do, but not to actually jump start off with, which as you state needs larger cables.Andi_Archer wrote:Yea we had another thread discussing jumper leads for a bike.Too small a cable and whilst it will charge from one battery to the other it wont carry enough load for the starter motor to turn over.I think the minimum worked out and between 4 and 6 mm squared for jumper cables so whilst smaller than the car type they would be still quite bulky even for a couple of meters and clips.The best option is a small portable battery pack which go from around £30 for those on the Chineese websites to upwards of £100 for the Antigravity types.Plus you can use them to charge your mobile and other devices.malcopopolo wrote:Its worth carrying 6 ft of domestic mains cable (13amp) with crocodile clips if doing an overland trip if you have the room.
