A vehicle doing the boosting (engine running) can profit from the following:
1) 10, 000 uf electrolytic cap connected to the battery.
(1) 2.2 uf cap connected to ignition 1
One avalanche diode across each cap. Of course reverse biased.
eBay MR-2535 and see what you come up with.
And I certainly invite techhies with oscilloscopes to do a before and after visual while jump starting another vehicle.
Diode note: the band on the diode goes closest to the positive connection of the capacitor. But both the battery and the ignition-1 get the MR-2535 diodes. Ignition-1 stays "hot" even when the ignition key id turned to the cranking start position.
