Lights left on, the fridge running, a battery that was already tired — the desert is where batteries go to die, and it's not a place to wait for a friend with jump leads. A jump-starter power bank starts the car on its own: clamps on, press, turn the key. Between emergencies it's a big power bank for phones and the lantern. It lives in the glovebox and asks for one thing — charge it once a month, because one that's been flat since last season is a paperweight.
