 Self-jumpstarting means jumpstarting one's own vehicle without the use of another vehicle.  It's done by [[electrical:12v:alternator|combining]] house and chassis batteries by one of several methods discussed below.  Self-jumpstarting means jumpstarting one's own vehicle without the use of another vehicle.  It's done by [[electrical:12v:alternator|combining]] house and chassis batteries by one of several methods discussed below. 
    
-Note:  regardless of specific method used, it will be gentlest on the system to **combine the batteries and wait a few minutes for the starter battery to come up** instead of immediately attempting to start. This will minimize the amount of current flowing from house bank to vehicle chassis. This may be especially important with Li chemistries that have BMS protections. +Note:  regardless of specific method used, it will be gentlest on the system to **combine the batteries and wait a few minutes for the starter battery to come up** instead of immediately attempting to start. This will minimize((or eliminate, if the connection is broken prior to starting)) the amount of current flowing from house bank to vehicle chassis.
