Your Autistic Life FR/EN/ES<p>I boosted someone's car this morning. I was in my living room. The blinds were opened, and I could see them outside, busy around their car. I figured they needed help. I got dressed, ran out of my apartment, and asked them if the car wasn't starting.</p><p>They said they had a battery problem. I got back inside to lookup how to access the battery in that car. (They did not know where it was, and I couldn't see it either.) I also got my multimeter. I ran back out, checked the battery, and it had too low a voltage.</p><p>I said I'd get a booster. So I ran to my car, got the booster out, hooked it to the terminals and asked them to start the car, and it started right away.</p><p>It was a Ford Explorer 2020. I was a bit concerned that my booster would not be enough, but it was. I had sized it for my car, which is a hatchback.</p><p>I told my boyfriend already, and I got high marks from him for my kindness. 😄</p><p>This is the product I used:</p><p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B095BZQLG5" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">amazon.com/gp/product/B095BZQL</span><span class="invisible">G5</span></a></p><p><a href="https://mast.yourautisticlife.com/tags/cars" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>cars</span></a> <a href="https://mast.yourautisticlife.com/tags/boost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>boost</span></a> <a href="https://mast.yourautisticlife.com/tags/jump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>jump</span></a> <a href="https://mast.yourautisticlife.com/tags/CarBattery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CarBattery</span></a></p>
Jason Stiff<p>Last year I bought a car battery self-charger. Last week, I charged it before the Arctic air arrived, but thankfully, I didn't need it. Fun fact: Stormy came up with the idea 12 years ago.
