And what about the 16v+ surge from the car on crank? The jump leads are unregulated pushing 16v straight out of the alternator. On a modern car with 30+ ECU's on them thats highly dangerous.

Cars do not have surge protection from spike wave form charging. Thats why all of my battery support units and boosters are flat wave form.

I never said you were wrong or I was right ..... that's what I've always done.
