[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1184877, member: 19880"] Only one (possible) issue with boosting from a car with the engine running or even with a really good battery. If the MC battery is flat, the car battery has the ability to provide a LOT of current. AGM batteries don't like to be charged at an excessive rate and it is possible that the large initial inrush of current could damage it which is irrelevant if the battery is already dead. This high initial current might be worse with the engine running. Other than that, volts are volts and you certainly won't harm the electronics. [/QUOTE]
