Yea, or you can buy the same one (Noco) without the Harley branding for $30-$40 dollars less at Walmart or elsewhere.

Thanks, I misread his post.

Also:
DO NOT LEAVE IT IN YOUR SADDLEBAGS, IN THE GARAGE, IN THE SUMMER. Those Lithium ion batteries are really great, but they don't handle heat very well and will swell up and become useless in short order.
No problem in the garage and sometimes in the saddlebag at the SAME time and no problems...at least five years now. garage gets to 90* in the summer.

I got a Type S jump pack from Costco.

I've used it to jump a couple bikes, cars, and even my diesel truck once (one other time batteries were so dead it wouldn't jump)

I just replaced one off eBay. A 20K mAp for $32. It's the size of an iPhone.

TheJuno brand one I replaced, lasted 8-years. I just dropped it one too many times.

OP- just get a car one for your car and leave it there. Those are bigger than the bike jump batteries. And all are cheap now a days.

I carry a Weego 22S with me when riding. I've used it numerous times when the temps are very low (I had been having a lot of kick-back issues, breaking starter clutches, when the temps were below 50 F), and it's performed flawlessly.

Cheers!

I carry one in the saddlebag when I go on road trips. Only had to use it once (so far), and it worked flawlessly. Can't remember the brand, but it's similar to NOCO.

I also bought the NOCO one. Works great and has reverse polarity protection. You can also charge it via USB and has a USB out jack for cell phones etc.One thing that mine won't do is jump a vehicle when the dead battery has less than 2 volts in it. (There's a bypass button on it but that also bypasses all the safety features)
