    That “ratchet starter” is a feature! That’s in case someone (god knows who would) try’s to steal it, you have enough time to either 1: grab the rifle and the shells, open the window and frame the shot. Or 2: put on your coat and boots and help him get it out of the yard, maybe give him a few bucks to say he never saw you. So you aren’t as jumpy when you report it stolen and turn it in to the insurance so you can buy a new four wheeler.

    The fact that the cables only smoked when you started cranking, shows that you were entirely powering the truck from the tool battery, and had little to no connection to the truck battery at all. Cleaning up the battery posts would have fixed the problem. This is also why the battery charger said the battery was 95% done all the time, as it was barely passing any current into the battery, and again why you smoked the little charger pack, instead of the pack bosting the battery, you pulled about 700amps straight from it and smoked it.

      You are supposed to crank right off the tiny booster. No one could ever put a significant charge into the lead battery from this wee booster. Even less from a 3S 12,6V Li-pack. You'd need at least 14V. Or 15,5V in the canuckistanian freezer.
