Jim,
Yes, I was thinking the same thing. There should be some sort of
electric alternative, perhaps using one of the common battery packs
like Milwaukee. But as you found, apparently no such thing exists
yet. As for the Quickjack, those are definitely clever. One concern
is the way they describe the sizing based on the kind of car. I
wonder if there is a model that can handle both a small car like a
Miata and a large SUV. I am not buying a selection of these
things! Also, I can currently lift a project car for long term work
and then jack up another car for an oil change or brake job. I guess
I would still need a jack and stands for that scenario. They do look
nice, though, and they would probably be very useful for most situations.

Pneumatics seem to be fading away. I did find a bunch of crap, mostly for
roadside emergencies that wouldn't fit under sports cars. Sadly nothing
approaching the version in my head.<br><br>
