I just have a Radio Shack crocodile-clip lead with one end on the
starter connector as above and the other dangling from a vacuum hose
near the alternator.  The boot covers the exposed end of the clip -
to start I just lift the clip up and press it onto the alternator B+
stud.  Low mass, low price, always available, no button to
accidentally press.  And another five or six clip leads in the
package.  NB - they have three sizes of clip leads, all useful and
reasonably well made, in packs of several.  The crocodile clip kind
is the largest one.

Yours,
David
