Tuesday's Tip (JumpBox)

Today's tip is something everyone should have in their car. This came in so handy for us this past Sunday. Brian went out to start the Sequoia so we could get to church and it wouldn't start. The battery was dead. Normally this would be a pain to pull up another car and get the jumper cables out and hook them up all the while keeping an eye on two little ones. Thankfully we didn't have to do that because we have a jump box in the back of the SUV. We got this about 4 years ago and it has come in so handy not just for us, but for others who have been stranded with a dead battery. This is so easy to use and if you are a woman, especially with kids, I would really recommend having it because you can do it by yourself. You just stick it on black and red, it tells you which cables to use, then go start your car. It's that simple. They are very affordable too. I think ours cost $50. After you use it you want to recharge it by plugging it in so it's ready for next time.

I've posted a very short video on how easy it is to operate. http://www.ehow.com/video_2260499_jump-start-car-jump-box.html
