Is there anything to be aware of leaving a jump pack connected to a car battery overnight ?
Clearly, the intended purpose of any modern jump pack is to briefly connect it, start the car and disconnect.
What negative issue may result to the car battery if left connected for 24 hours?
For the sake of analysis, let's assume the car battery is fine but car is driven only 1 or 2 days a week and then only for very short duration (20 minutes). Clearly, not enough time to fully compensate for a slow discharge due to on-board electronics. In case it matters, the car has an AGM battery and the jump pack has a Lithium battery. Let's also assume that no practical way exists to use an electrical connection/trickle charger (ie. airport parking, condo parking)
The jump pack (source) would slowly equalize voltages to the car (destination) battery.
I would expect that the jump pack would be Ok to recharge under this scenario but would something unforeseen occur to the car battery if this was done repeatedly?
