ABSTRACT:
A self-contained, battery powered, cableless starting device provides high DC power levels for short durations. Preferred devices have a battery, a connector terminal assembly, and a monitor/control circuit that indicates the voltage available, and limits the device output to safe voltage levels so the battery is not damaged. The connector terminal assembly preferably has 2 or more contacts, sized and dimensioned to electrically contact (mate) with selected electric starter auxiliary power input terminals. In another aspect of preferred embodiments, the coupling mechanism physically prevents the contact surface(s) from being positioned more than 5 feet from the battery. Commercial devices may advantageously include multiple batteries in a small carrying case, and have the appropriate capacity, voltage and connectors for starting a specific type of engine. For example, an especially preferred device has connectors suitable for starting a 12V or 24V powered aircraft. Such devices may advantageously have an overall stick shape, such as 2.times.3.times.14 inches, and may weigh only about 3 pounds.
