I seem to get asked all the time if I have jump leads to start various colleagues' cars. Maybe they leave the lights on all the time...
I thought I might buy a set.
Any idea where I can get a long-ish set on the Island, preferably near Al Nayhan/Al Karamah?

My wife always leaves her lights on, so after a while a got tired of getting rescue calls and went to Ace and bought her a portable booster from Black'n Decker, with built-in cables. Very small fit under seat. She used it a few times already 
and loves it. It is 350 Amp. Will be handy when we go camping with jeep or boat just in case

Re: Jump leads in the City
You can find booster cables in some ADNOC petrol stations.
See to get them with heavy clips, sufficient length and flexible cable.
Some have thin clips, the insulation chips off easily.
