Jump starting

How many times has the battery run down and the airplane will not start?

Yesterday I had a run down battery and used a mini Jump Starter to get the airplane going.

In over 16-years, I have never seen my engine spin so fast and that includes having the spark plugs out. I am ready to buy one.

Searching the internet, I was looking for any negatives on carrying one in the airplane. I remember the Boeing 787 battery fires and do not want to become the first RV battery fire.
