BOB, The Brown-Out Booster
To save fuel, some newer cars automatically switch off the engine instead of
idling. As they restart, power to accessories momentarily drops below V1’s
10-volt minimum, causing it to repeat its start-up sequence when voltage is
resumed. BOB (optional) solves the problem by maintaining voltage during
these brief sags. BOB has two RJ11 (telephone) jacks. Run a power cord from
the source of 12V to the jack labeled “To 12V.” Plug power cord from V1 into
the jack labeled “To V1.”
BOB is an electronic device that doesn’t use a battery and requires no
periodic service.
