Got Battery Back-Up?
You’ve got a back-up battery for your TV remote, your smoke detector, and your toothbrush, right? So, why not have a battery back-up for your windshield repair equipment?

- Use the 12V receptacle, either in your vehicle or the customer’s vehicle, to power a 12V UV light or moisture evaporator.
Some additional items that to consider having on hand for emergencies:
- Portable jump starter. Some new units are small and very handy!
- A/C to D/C power converters. These are smaller and more reliable than most jump starters, but you must have an A/C outlet to plug it into.
- D/C to A/C power inverters. Excellent for running 120V tools off your 12V vehicle. Light duty models plug…. Continue Reading
