i was simply saying, bumabalik ang pag gamit ng elektrik pan sa pasahero ng kotse.
for whatever reasons that may be.
i wasn't asking you to advertise your age.

Napansin ko lang, yung price ng mga portable jumpstarter/powerbank things na yun, halos kapresyo na rin ng bagong car battery...

I'd get the real thing na lang

Hmmm bakit nga ba no? Weight? Convenience? Napaisip din ako.

These come handy as self-serve or jesuit kits. Guess you haven't been stranded some place far from civilization. It can ruin perfectly planned solo roadtrips/reflection runs. Precisely why I got a reliable 1.[emoji4]

Peace of mind. You'll never know when your battery decides to go kaput!

Pang emergency...

I guess the point's similar to yung mga "fix a flat" na instant vulcanizer in a can. Used only in extreme emergency kung na flat ka in a dangerous place and need to get away quickly. They do work, but you'll have to buy a new tire, and scrape off the gunk off the wheel afterwards.

In this case, you have a 2-3 yr old (mid-range quality) battery that you're not confident/don't trust on a long drive, so you bring along a jumpstarter/powerbank in case it dies. Then you can start the car... to buy a new battery.

Uhm, sige, but not for me IMHO.

...akala ko ba frugal living itong thread?

i agree.
unless, driver frequents inhospitable neighborhoods, like jungles.

but then, it is difficult to stuff new batteries in the glove compartment.

my colleague.
replace battery every 2 years, regardless.
