Can anybody recommend a compact jump starter with leads long enough to reach the two engine bay starter points on a (2023 140) Ducato?

Just wondering if it would be better to leave it switched off until needed so you know if the starter battery is beginning to failI cannot recommend any particular jump starter to fit the Ducato points ....
.... but I would suggest you think about investigating in a Sterling Power B2B wired to charge the Starter Battery from the Leisure Battery.
That is - it does the similar job as a jump starter but uses the leisure battery which you already have.
Others on here will tell you the idea is OTT, but I have found it a really useful addition and simple to wire in place, with a switch on the D+ input to the B2B to turn it on.
I leave mine switched on all of the time.
Don't know the arrangement on a Ducato but surely you don't need to connect to the negative starter point.... any negative ground on chassis in engine bay will do.. assuming it is closer..Can anybody recommend a compact jump starter with leads long enough to reach the two engine bay starter points on a (2023 140) Ducato?
I have a button, as standard, on my 2007 Murvi Morello that will allow the hab batteries to connect to the starter battery and assist starting, is that unusual?I cannot recommend any particular jump starter to fit the Ducato points ....
