New Lithium battery

5 degrees centigrade in Spain? You must be very careful at your age, hypothermia and all that!!

Quite.
See - I need natures Anti-freeze ( called Gin and Rum) and have a genuine reason to pickle my liver.
We're high up so it gets chilly.

Hey @Boog , I have been carrying a jumper box for about 3 or 4 years. On the touring I had a lead that came from my Motobat 4 terminal battery that hooked externally to the jump pak. I think the jump pak needs replaced by now

@TheKid how often do you recharge the jump box? Most are good for 2 to 4 years. An odd one may last longer. The one I have tells me to chrahe it or at least check it monthly to maintain longevity.

@Boog I charge it once a week or so if for home use. If on the road ( and it's been awhile), every time I use it , that night or so to be sure. I havn't used it on the new bike, 2007, but used it all the time on the touring stock battery and the motobatt. Even when the Motobatt AGM was new. The jumper box hasn't been used in a couple years. Guess I should check it. Won't be ridding much now. Gotta switch engines soon, couple of weeks or so
