Booster for the dreaded dead 12V battery

[SylvainG]

Now those 12V lithium boosters needs lots of amps to crank the ICE, but that's not the case for an EV. Are there specific to look at when buying a booster for a EV? No issue yet, just want to be prepared

As far as I’m aware, no. I’ve used one several times to recover a dead 12V on my Kia Soul EV.

My only recommendation would be to make sure it has a bypass or boost mode to get it to output current even when it doesn't detect a high enough voltage on the 12v battery. Otherwise the reverse polarity and other protections built into them might keep them from working if your 12v battery voltage is to low.
