Car Problems? Jumpstart your on the road safety with these tools for Women drivers
Filed in: Womens Tool Tips
Got a call from my daughter the other night and she was stuck at work with a dead battery. I ran over with the jumper cables and in a matter of minutes she was ready to go.
I told her, in typical 'Dad' fashion, "You should get yourself a pair of jumper cables". "No Dad" she said, "It's not safe for a girl to use those". Huh? What? How is using a set of jumper cables unsafe? After she explained it to me I understood.
Using jumper cables requires someone else to be included - you have to get a jump from someone. Unless you know this someone, you're placing yourself in a potentially unsafe situation. OK, so how do we find a solution?
Actually, the answer was pretty easy... A POWERPACK. This is just like having a spare battery along with you. You hook the thing up to the battery and wal-la, you have a jump. This pack includes outlets to power 110volt appliances, a built-in emergency radio, and safety light.
No father likes to think about his little girl being stranded somewhere all alone... But now I feel better knowing the next time she needs a jump, she won't have to get a stranger involved - just one step closer to self independence.
