ABSTRACT:
A starting aid and reserve light for vehicles, especially cars. The starting aid comprises at least two identical secondary batteries normally connected in parallel and charged together with the starter battery, when the car is in use. However, a solid state diode prevents the discharge of these batteries together with the starter battery. In case the starter battery is exhausted, being not capable of starting the motor, it can be sufficiently recharged by the starting aid. This is done by means of a switch disconnecting the diode, connecting said secondary batteries in series and simultaneously the resulting double voltage battery in parallel with the starter battery. The starting aid includes a lamp, providing a powerful, portable reserve light.
