I modified a Automobile Jump Starter unit into a portable power supply
tor the group I used to work with. I picked that particualr unit because
it had a trickle charger base it sits in when not in use.
It had an internal 15 A/h battery in it. I removed the jumper cables
and installed a power pole connector and a digital volt meter. It was
good for about 24 hours running a 5 watt unit.
