Jumping car on AEM

Can you jump a car on AEM with jumper cables?

Our 2G ran a pass running off a booster pack because the alternator belt broke, and it was on an AEM.

Again, I have jumped mine a ton of times and charged the battery a ton of times with the AEM in. I have a 04 evo with 25k miles with a mini battery, the car sits for weeks a time without being driven. The battery dies all the time.

Just to add what was said above..I have probably jumped my supra bout a dozen times since I dont drive it much and had a crappy battery in it...the AEM is one of the origional ones from when they first came out and I have not had a problem with it at al!

Jump boxes and Jumper Cables are ok.

NEVER hook up a battery charger (connected to an AC power source), and crank the car while the charger is connected.
