Obviously you have to think carefully where to site it and how to get guaranteed access with a "dead" car.
Good thinking HP. I’m going to try one on the battery terminal in the boot. The boot is accessible via the key.

Generally I’ve only found the windows one touch function needs resetting and the traction control recalibrates itself after pulling away after power has been interrupted.

I’ll try it for a week and report back if it is practicable.

Cheers all.
