Michelin Smart Jumper Cable on Woot

Hey guys, just thought I'd share a good deal on this Michelin jumper cable for the duration of July 22-23. Even though my car has not needed one, I've assisted plenty of other people with the jumper cable in my trunk. Just thought I pass off this great deal and a great product (I hope). For $18 shipped it's not bad at all.

Are the cables labeled + or - at all?

$18 isn't too bad and the TLs crap OEM battery is dying on me. I think I'll pass.

you can hook them up any way you want. The module will do the rest.

Thanks for the heads up! I already have them, but I just got two sets, one for my parents and one for my brother. You basically get two for the price of one.

Waste of money imho. Learn to use the real cables and you won't have a issue.

on old cars on new cars The newer electronics could get fried with the traditional cables. These are a safer cable for a dumb operator and safer for your vehicle.

The new cars won't have a issue if it is hooked up right. That is on new or old cars.

Well for car enthusiasts like us who knows way too much about cars would think this is useless. But I got three for my parents and fiancee to leave in their car and they are definitely mechanically inclined.

Well if they don't have "cables" already, then I can see someone buying these. But if you already have a good set, no reason to get another set for these.

It's a good set of cables for a good price regardless if they're idiot proof or not.

I know they don't need to be labeled.
I don't trust some little box to do this auto polarity.
