Good quality product, I ordered one for each of my vehicles. I jump started an old car about 5 times until it needed to recharge it. Compressor worked great for filling up my bicycle tires and soccers balls or basketballs. They come with several attachments for the air compressor tip that are very useful. The air compressor stopped working for one of the units but their Customer Service team sent me a replacement after I returned it directly through them and not Amazon. Read more
JANUARY, 2023: I've only had this Lokithor JA301 for a couple of days now, but I must say that I am very pleased with it thus far. when it arrived, I took it out of the box and read the instructions. I, then, turned it on and noticed that it only had two of four bars of battery power in it. I had a Cadillac parked in my garage that was down about 7psi in three of its tires and down 10psi in the remaining one. I hooked up the air hose to the Lokithor and to my tires, one at a time. It took a little over1 minute to air up the three tires that were down 7psi and took slightly less than 2 minutes to air up the tire that was down 10psi. During the process, the unit didn't get very warm at all. I was extremely pleased with the Lokithor JA301's performance! Also, the LED light that it has is said to produce 300 lumens of light, but it seems to be far, far brighter than that. And, due to the form factor of the unit, it doesn't move around when placed upon the floor with the air compressor in use. Needless to say, I am a happy camper with this!! I haven't tried the Jump Starter capability of the Lokithor JA301 yet, and hope that I'll never need to, but if I do, and the unit works as well as a jump starter as it does as a tire inflator, I'm sure that I will be elated. UPDATE - MAY, 2023: My wife's 1967 Mercury Cougar has been parked in the garage for many months with a completely dead battery. When you open the door no interior lights come on. When the key is inserted into the ignition and turned, nothing happens...no dash lights, no clicks, no nothing. I took my Lokithor out of the trunk of my Cadillac, where it had been stored for 4 months, and turned it on to see if it had any juice left in it. To my delight it had maintained a full charge...4 bars! After inserting its jumper cables and connecting them to the Cougar's battery, I turn on the Lokithor, got into the Cougar, and turned the key. The engine turned over rapidly and, in less than one second, fired up an ran like it new! To say the least, I was thrilled!! 😁 I put the Lokithor inside of the Cougar and drove to my mechanic's shop to get a new battery. When I got there I stopped the engine and went inside. When I came out, with the mechanic, he tried to start the car, but the dead battery wouldn't do it. I quickly grabbed the Lokithor, hooked it up to the dead battery, and signaled the mechanic to turn the key. The engine roared to life instantly! After the two jump starts I noticed that the Lokithor was now indicating 3 bars of charge. It had only used one of its total capacity of four bars of charge. Applying a little bit of math I figured that I could have started the Cougar six more times before needing to recharge the Lokithor. In my humble opinion, the Lokithor JA301 is FANTASTIC!! 👍👍 Read more
Purchased in 2023 (it is 2025 now), have used this to jumpstart numerous vehicles over the past two years. Started every car on first crank without exception. Started a car that hadn't been run in four months. Car battery was at 7.7 volts. No problem! Fired right up. The only thing I make sure I do is to recharge the unit after each jump. The USB-C charge works great (heard they had issues in 2022. My 2023 unit works great.) The case is optional (and around $35.) For some, it might not be worth it. But it is well-made and keeps the cables all together. Just make sure you place one of the battery clamps to one end of the zippered pouch and the other clamp to the other end of the compartment. Otherwise, the handle of the JA301 will prevent the case from zippering closed. Read more
Bought this to replace a RG1000 w/compressor whose housing exploded due to a lithium battery failure. I would have purchased from that brand but no longer available. Bought this solely on ratings and that it has all the features the former unit has. Or so I thought. First off, it’s HUGE. Like, I have no idea where I’m going to put this monstrosity. The “carry bag” is a joke. Lithium battery devices shouldn’t be stored in a hot or cold vehicle so I’m supposed to tote this back and forth in and out of my house in this flimsy little bag? The instructions seem pretty clear. Charging only with USB-A into the wall and USB-C into the device. Several other reviewers apparently didn’t read that part. Charged up from 70% very quickly. Light is meh. I think it’ll be ok to illuminate the area if I’m under the hood or filling a tire. I’d plan on having a separate flashlight/head lamp for that purpose. Here’s hoping I don’t have to use it!!!! Read more
I got one for myself and loved it enough to get another for my son when he moved out of state after graduating college. I dont know how long it will hold a charge because every 6 months I make sure it is fully charged so I'll have it ready when needed. It has never been down more than 1 bar when Ive checked on it at the 6 month mark. For jump starts, this is great for people who live alone or dont have someone on hand to give a jump start if needed. For filling tires, this saves so much time over heading to a service station or tire shop when a tire is low. Ive needed to use it every year when the Colorado weather gets cold enough to affect tire pressure. It has also come in handy when one of my tires got a slow leak and had to be topped off several times in just a coupke of weeks (had to replace the tire eventually). Once it's programmed for the tire pressure needed for your altutude and vehicle, it's so easy to use and is easy to get all tires inflated the same. Read more
