In my Carina racecar I have a battery out of a Jump Start pack.
It is usually cheaper to buy a whole jumper pack and rip the battery out of it.
I made a vented sealed enclosure using a big tupperware type container.
However - I now understand that due to some rule changes I could have it fitted bare with no enclosure.
The battery is pretty damn small!
Starts my 3sge easily hot or cold... don't know how it would go long term on a road car.

I used to think that the orange and green tictacs gave you special powers. The orange ones would make you stronger and the green ones would make you faster. So i used to eat some green ones and run around my lounge as fast as i could, then eat the orange ones and try to pick up the sofa. I wish it were true!
