I was wandering around the car accessory department of a supermarket the other day and saw a set of jump leads that work from the cigar lighter socket. Are these things any good? I would be a bit wary myself but just wondered if any BR users had any experience of them?

I wouldn't like to try them, sometimes my heavy-duty (welding cable) ones get slightly warm! - tis only thin wire on end of cigar lighter, me thinks wouldn't take much "cranking" before burning smell appears!

Most sane manufacturers use fuses in their cigarette lighter circuits. If anything on a car blows fuses, it's the fag lighter. [You wouldn't believe what kids put in them; especially the vertical ones...]
I think the lighter-to-lighter leads are meant for charging, not cranking. It would work, in theory - if you've got a few hours....
