jump starters

[SteveL]

Last month I bought one of those small power packs. It's like 6x8x1 1/2". I took it home and charged it then threw it in the glove box. Yesterday a guy in an old dodge with a 440 needed a jump. That little thing worked like a champ. Better than the bigger pos I bought from hf that's sitting in the garage. It also has ports for cell phone and lap tops and stuff. Well worth th $85 I spent. They had smaller ones the size of cell phones but only good up to 300ci for jump starting. I was skeptical when I bought it but glad I did.

There's not a brand on it but their website is planBpower.net.. it's not as big as I thought . It's 7x3.5x1.5 but the case is 9x7. Comes with all the adapters for charging stuff.

Oh. Bought it at the hot rod swap meet in long beach.

Just make sure you push the connector all the way into the battery pack before using. Fried one awhile ago

I've got 1 like the Powerall that I purchased at the Off Road Expo last year for around $100, then they came out with a smaller version a couple of months ago on sale for $79 so I got another for my boat. It's about the size of a Droid w/ case.
My wife had a dead cell in her car battery last year and had to use the first one 3 times in one day. I was amazed it was able to handle that load without a re-charge. It will definitely be on my list for Baja!
They are the hot ticket for sure.

I'm going to spend a little more and get a AntiGravity XP-10 so I can jump diesels as well.

I carry one in my truck. Haven't had to use it yet. Waiting to see if it will power my dump trailer. Hate it when I get to the dump with a full load and find the battery dead.

I borrowed a dump truck that was used quite often and loaded it with dirt only to find it wouldn't dump %) We moved 5 years of dirt by hand before that POS would move - that sucked.

 

[markw]

Oh, hell yes that would suck. 5 yrds is a LOT of dirt!!

I have one. It works awesome. I've used it 3x in one night 4.6l on a crown vic patrol car, as well as a 6.0 in my boat.
Blown away with how well it works.
