Booster Cables

With more and more older vehicles on our roads than ever, there are plenty of batteries out there that are far from prime condition. But even a new car and battery won’t save you from a flat battery if you’ve left your headlights or an interior light on. Knowing this, should you have a set of booster cables safely stored away in the boot or garage? Put simply, yes. Plan ahead!

If you’ve had a flat battery you know that it’s extremely frustrating when the car fails to start. Always happens at the wrong time. If you haven’t, don’t worry - it’ll happen one day (hopefully not!). Sure, many Australian motorists have a membership with roadside car clubs, like the RACV, NRMA or RACQ. They will get you back on the road – but perhaps not as fast as a passing motorist or someone in the same carpark as you.

Generally, a flat battery happens after a period of inactivity. After a long night in the carport, following a family holiday or on a currently under-utilised vehicle that spends more time parked in the street than any of us would like. It’s not just cars that are affected by flat starter batteries – think boats and motorcycles too.

Given all of this, if you need to jump start your car’s battery then Projecta has an extensive range of quality booster cables for DIYers through to the auto professional or workshop.

Let’s start at the top of the tree, with our ServiceMate Premium Nitrile booster cables. Ranging from 750 to 900amps, this a very fast and safe jumpstarter. It’s a great product for roadside service vehicles, tow trucks, earth moving contractors, farmers and 4WDs that regularly jumpstart other vehicles.

They feature a 1.5m vehicle harness, battery connectors, surge protection with LED battery level indication, heavy duty-clamps, double insulated heavy-duty cables and a solid brass 1000A clamp.
