Microstart on Heidi and Franny's Garage
This might be a decent tool to have under the seat or glovebox if you are fortunate enough to have one, in your 996. It would allow you to power up the electronic hood latch to get the frunk open if your battery was flat, and then maybe even jump-start the car afterward.
Cheers,

Neat little package...but I'd want to test to see if it has enough power to "pop the hood" using the red terminal fuse box connection plus it doesn't look like the cable would be long enough to get a good ground connection. Maybe someone will test and report back.

It "might" need a short jumper wire to reach the fuse box connection, however I can attest that it has no problem cranking over the car. I have a couple of year old version of this same unit and have used it to start multiple vehicles, from small V8s, to V6s as well as a 944 Turbo race car. Works amazing. Truly valuable tool to have around.
