My #2 son gave me one of the compact lithium ion battery jumpers/chargers after I complained of loosing out on two cruises on my new boat due go low battery chargelast summer. It's rated at 700 amps and supposedly will jump start a 5 liter gasoline engine. Seems small for that but time will tell.

I bought one a couple years ago and it works great, used it several times to jump cars, bikes etc..
I stash it in the bottom of my panniers on the bike along with my tire pug kit and compressor for long trips.
