I may be wrong on this but if you land and have depleted your ignition backup and as stated above you've depleted your starter battery, you're not going anywhere. I believe the starter battery will require a BMS reset which requires a charger like the Optimate to perform.
Regardless, none of this replaces the need for a proper battery for the task and my request to EarthX remains and we can't say the ETX-104 is the right solution as it is. The risk may be low but I'd rather have the risk zero and never have to worry about it.
I hope none of us ever have to use our ignition backup battery.
