Hi Group
I have quite a few brand new sets of components from a Jump Start Battery:
https://skydrive.live.com/redir.aspx?cid=550fc20dbddb521d&resid=550FC20DBDDB521D!413&parid=550FC20DBDDB521D!408&authkey=!ADA-L-1AURQ0PJU
We gutted the brand new jump start packs because we needed the case, volt meter, flashlight and receptacles.
The set consists of one 9lb AGM sealed Lead Acid Battery, a 500mA constant current charger with line cord (UL approved), 1 set of jumper cables a little shy of 2 feet long, the charger control board that turns charging off at ~ 14.1 volts, also a DC cord that you can charge from a 12 VDC source (Red LED turns off when charging is complete) and a 15 amp resettable fuse that was attached to a cigarette adapter.
I'm looking for $10 each plus shipping. They work great as a bench 12 volt source or turning your 12 volt cordless drill into a corded version that you can use the entire day. The local Battery Plus will give me 7$ each for just the battery as scrap but it kills me to do that, all this stuff is brand new.
A little ingenuity will give you a nice jump start pack. Or buy a few hundred and make packs and sell them.
I need to move them by the end of next month.

9lb battery/jumpstart kit shipping cost update.
Hi Group
I received a request for cost of shipping 3 kits:
USPS Large Flat Rate Box fits 3 kits, cost $15.45 anywhere in the continental US, so total for 3 kits $45.45
USPS Medium Flat Rate Box fits 2 kits, cost $11.35, so total for 2 kits $$31.35
For sure 1 kit will fit in a Medium Flat Rate Box for $11.35, so total cost for 1 kit $$21.35, but if close to New York 11754 it may be worth it to go Parcel Post. I gave weight and dimensions of the battery, add some bulk and another 2 pounds for the other stuff, you can look up on USPS site and figure which way you would want one to ship.
BTW They were all top off charged as of 2 weeks ago (not a trivial job!). Also I will provide a schematic for hooking up the charge control circuit, not very difficult, but it has three outputs, one for charging the battery and two more, one went to the 15 amp cigarette receptacle and the other to the volt meter.
This is really a great deal, I just don't have the time to put together into a fully assembled pack that could be sold pretty easy for 30 or 35$. There are 500 kits at the moment, in a few weeks I will actively look for a new home for them so if you are on the fence, speak now.
Here's where the rest of the jump start packs went:
