Pro tip. Buy a rechargeable jump starter. Problem nonexistent.

Ive heard this for 40yrs and have never seen a battery blow up, had electronics destroyed, etc. I have had them jumpstart with no problems...ever. I guess there might be a first time for everything. Still find this channel informative.

[OrnelasB]

Who’s ever jumped a car like that? I never have and I’ve never had any problems with electronics.

"They spin against each other"? It's DC, regulated DC. I see no problem with two alternators in a parallel circuit.

[DSKSeattle]

Never knew two alternators could spin against each other. Usually they spin with each other (meaning they increase the amperage output capacity but still remain within a 12-volt system). They don't short each other out.

[GeekyGamer]

As an electrical engineer who has done this wrong multiple times... He's absolutely right. Having 2 different devices trying to regulate voltage connected together is ALWAYS a recipe for disaster, and it's honestly incredible to me that it doesn't cause more issues now that I think about it.

[larrywuzhere]

I’ve done it wrong for 40 years. Thanks for teaching me right Scotty.

[maniv]

I've literally never heard of that happening. Ever.

[habbadabbado]

So glad I saw this. According to Scotty’s advice, the old jumping method can create problems.

[novaguy]

Good tip. Thank you. The clarification I need is it’s ok to run the donor car to help charge a dead battery as long as you turn the donor car off before attempting to start the car with the dead battery.

Scotty is the type of the mechanic that randomly walks into the service lane to talk to all the customers

[jdsguam]

Why has everyone I've ever known in my entire life of 68 years, kept this vital information from me.

[jackochukpue]

Dang, I thought I knew something about cars. I definitely learned something again, thanks Uncle Scotty!

If you don't have a basic understanding of electrical mechanics you won't truly understand what scotty is talking about
