ABSTRACT:
A booster cable system is provided for use in starting an automotive vehicle having a discharged battery with a charged battery, each battery having a positive terminal and a negative terminal. The booster cable system includes a first electrical cable having a first end for connection to the positive terminal of the charged battery and a second end, a second electrical cable having a first end for connection to the positive terminal of the discharged battery and a second end, a third electrical cable having a first end for connection to the negative terminal of the charged battery and a second end, and a fourth electrical cable having a first end for connection to the negative terminal of the discharged battery or a ground in the vehicle having the discharged battery and a second end. The four electrical cables are insulated. The booster cable system further includes an electrical switch coupled to said four electrical cables. The electrical switch when closed electrically connects the second end of the first electrical cable to the second end of the second electrical cable and electrically connects the second end of the third electrical cable to the second end of the fourth electrical cable. The booster cable system further includes an electrical clip on the first end of each one of the first, second, third and fourth electrical cables for removably securing the first end of each cable at its intended location. The booster cable system further includes first and second signal indicator circuits which visually indicate by green and red light emitting diodes the state of the connections made from the booster cable system to the charged battery, the discharged battery, and a ground.
