JUMP STARTER FOR CAR ALTERNATIVE – THE ADAPTIVE BOOSTER.

Occasionally, we find ourselves in a scenario where our car's battery is dead. This means that the battery is too low to start the vehicle. In such cases, many people search for a car jump starter or jump cables to revive the battery. However, in some instances, these devices pose a risk to the user, the battery, or the car's electronics. An Adaptive Booster represents the safest alternative to traditional jump starting.

WHY DOES THE CAR BATTERY DIE?

There are several causes for having a dead battery. A car battery will gradually deplete if left unattended for extended periods. Modern cars include several electronic systems that continue to operate even when the vehicle is off, which accelerates the battery's depletion.

While extreme heat will drain your battery more quickly and increase the likelihood that you will need to use a jump starter, colder weather is also bad for batteries because it requires more power from the battery to start the car. Extreme temperatures can also affect the efficiency of the battery and are another reason why you might find yourself in need of a jump starter for a car.

It's crucial to remember that while an Adaptive Booster is a safer alternative for both your battery and the electronics in your car, a jump-starting pack can still get you moving if your battery dies.

PROBLEMS WITH TRADITIONAL JUMP STARTERS AND JUMP CABLES

Jump cables, also known as jumper cables, are used in the traditional method of jump starting a car, connect a charged battery from a donor vehicle to the dead battery in the car that needs to be jump-started. By attaching the two batteries, power is transferred from the donor vehicle to the dead vehicle, bypassing the dead battery and starting the car. The dead battery will then be recharged by the alternator later on.

Utilizing a different vehicle as a jump starter for automobile batteries presents some problems. An improperly connected set of cables could result in a spark and, in the worst-case scenario, a fire. Connecting the battery the wrong way around runs the risk of reversing its polarity, which could damage the electronics in your car.

Load dumping, which occurs when a car uses another car as a jump starter, can also damage any of the two linked vehicles. The cables produce an electromagnetic energy field when they connect the two cars. The electromagnetic field in each vehicle collapses when disconnected, redistributing the energy to the cars that are still attached. This might result in an enormous voltage spike that blows the car's ECUs and destroys its electronic components.

Although traditional jump cables and jump starter packs share many of the same issues, jump starter packs typically have more built-in safety features. When a conventional jump starter is used correctly, it can still harm a car's battery and pose a risk to the user or the electronics inside the vehicle.

The vehicle uses the jump starter pack as a power reservoir since it starts the car without using the battery. When the jump starter pack is unplugged, the car's alternator will detect that the battery is low and begin to draw power at a rate far higher than what is healthy for the battery. This produces heat, and the battery plates inside occasionally get so hot that they begin to bend. Should that occur, the battery's plates start to crack, causing debris to drop to the battery's bottom. This eventually shortens the battery's lifespan and capacity by causing permanent damage. If the battery had been correctly charged or powered on by the adaptive booster, the eventual need for replacement would have been avoided.

WHY IS AN ADAPTIVE BOOSTER A BETTER OPTION THAN A TRADITIONAL JUMP STARTER?

Using an adaptive booster will help power up the dead battery in much safer conditions than using pure energy and a large burst of it with a traditional jump starter. Rather than blasting the battery with a lot of electricity all at once, the adaptive booster charges the battery little by little until the battery has enough power to start the car. It is safer for the vehicle's electronics and much gentler to the battery because it powers the battery to the point where it can start the vehicle, rather than acting as a power reservoir and avoiding the battery. It is also spark-free and reverse polarity protected, so even if you disconnect it, no risk is involved.

SAY GOODBYE TO JUMP STARTER PACKS AND HELLO TO CS FREE®!

While charging your battery regularly is the best way to keep it in optimal condition, we recognize that emergencies will still arise from time to time, and we have you covered with our adaptive booster CS FREE®, which eliminates the need for a car jump starter!
