ABSTRACT:
An emergency engine starting apparatus locates the batteries or other power source(s) with respect to a current carrying cable to provide high conformability between extended and storage configurations. High conformability of an apparatus is defined herein as being configurable between a greatest extended configuration having a length (l.sub.e) and a storage configuration having a length (l.sub.s), wherein l.sub.e .gtoreq.3 l.sub.s. Preferred apparatus have conformability ratios of .gtoreq.3, .gtoreq.4, .gtoreq.5, .gtoreq.7.5, and .gtoreq.10. Preferred power sources provide an electrical potential of at least 6 volts, and a current of at least 20 amps. More preferable power sources provide sustainable currents of at least 40 amps, and even more preferable power sources provide sustainable currents of at least 60 amps. Preferred cables are relatively long, measuring up to 6 feet or more.
