ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for safely connecting the batteries of two vehicles to jump start one of the vehicle engines. Safety is achieved by three means: 1) The location for making the connection is removed from the vicinity of the battery. The remote connector eliminates the potential for ignition of battery-generated gasses and also the potential for other accidents associated with open vehicle engine compartments. 2) The connector itself is designed so that the connection can be made in only one way, positive to positive and negative to negative, eliminating the possibility of reversing polarity and the resulting damage to personnel and to vehicles. 3) The connector is easy to use and inexpensive to manufacture because of unitized construction; positive and negative contact surfaces are included in each connector half.
