So I bought a small “jump start” battery to throw in my pannier just in case, until I replace the battery as an insurance policy. Here’s a new question. Should one use the battery tender connection to use a jump starter rather than clamping directly to the battery (in the unlikely I even need to), or is that wire harness to frail to take the current of an auxiliary battery? Don’t want to find the hard way. If in doubt, I can just jumpstart the old fashioned way if it ever becomes necessary. Just curious anyone has tried that. Thanks

Go straight to the battery. You only have to remove the one screw to remove the battery cover.
Don't forget there's a remote positive post under the red plastic cap so the positive and negative of the battery is easy to get at.
If you happened to buy a Micro Start jump pack they sell a harness that can be connected to the jump pack but that's really for bikes that don't have easy access to the battery.
Somehow I missed the other replies
