Question Portable Battery Backup

Looking to buy a portable unit incase my battery dies. My 600 doesn't come with a pull start of course. I was thinking about having one of those that you plug in at night and I will have in case on the trails. Last season I stalled because I wore it down using the winch getting out after I burried the machine. (Good Time) Any opinions on good cheap ones?

sams club, walmart, you'll probably only use it a couple of times , keep it inside , warm and charged up exept when on wheeler should last, what gets them is the cold and people forget to charge them, just like a battery

My B-inlaw has a black & decker portable jump pack that works really well and didn't cost much at wal-mart. When I first saw it I kinda laughed to myself thinking it was a piece of crap and wouldn't last. It's been 3 years and it still works great. For once in my life I was wrong. Just don't tell anyone I admitted to it. LOL
