I brokd down and a tow truck had to tow me. I saw something that was used as for lighs on back of my MH.
a small box went on back of the tow truck and then a set of lights were hung on my rear ladder.
With al the stuff I read on here about battery going dead and having to pull a fuse. I have a sebring and I tow all wheels down. I use a break buddy ect and so on. I have had my tow go dead as well.I never seen this device the tow truck driver used.

Jim,

It's not the lights that normally pull down the battery, it's the need to keep the ignition in the 'acc' position, which powers a lot of stuff in the car.

The portable tow lights won't help for this problem.
