Best I Have (and I Own 5 of This Style Jump Starter)!
I have one of this type of jump starter in every vehicle I own (5), all different brands. This is probably my favorite, which is why it's in the car I use most often. Power: This is the first test for me. I have a 1995 Ford Explorer that puts a pretty decent load on these. I don't drive it often, so it tends to sit for months at a time and there is some parasitic drain that leaves the battery stone dead every time I go to use it. This little unit had plenty of power to turn it over and fire it up. It passes the power test for me when I can start the old Explorer. Quality: I have some others that feel pretty flimsy. I'd put this one in the top two of those I own in terms of build quality. It certainly doesn't feel as flimsy as some others I've had. It does have a flashlight, which is a nice feature not all of mine have, and it is the brightest of those that do. I especially like the air pump feature, which none of my others have. It isn't as speedy as my dedicated compressor on my Jeep, but it will air up a tire that's running low in a reasonable amount of time. Ease of Use/Other Features: Like most of these, this is pretty easy to use, and it does come with basic instructions that are pretty intilligible. It also acts as a battery bank for charging your electronic devices, a feature not all of my jump starters have (and especially handy when I'm in a car that doesn't have USB connectors for power and one of my family members napped my 12v adapter!). Other: I like the size (not too big), and it functions just like the others I have. The instructions are clear enough my son could figure it out and he's not particularly mechanically-inclined (he's my litmus test on ease-of-use for these). I think having these in your vehicle is a real life-saver. I was on a trip through California and left my trailer hooked up and it's refrigerator drew down the trailer battery and my vehicle battery and one of these saved me a whole lot of walking. I think everyone should have one in their vehicle, and this one is a pretty good value. Overall Opinion: Of the 5 I own currently, this is my favorite, and compared to my favorite of all time (which is now with my daughter) it's pretty close and a fraction of the size. All in all, I consider this "best of class" of these types of jump starters, and recommend it highly. Read more
