What I am curious about is why some people posted arguments that a D-cell cannot supply enough current to charge a car, when it was quite clear that the matter involved a device that charges the car battery over a period of time, in order to give you a few seconds of high current starting power. Think of the car battery as a power reserve. --Phil Howard, KA9WGN-- | Individual CHOICE is fundamental to a free society | no matter what the particular issue is all about.
