Well there are two styles
A jump box is like a large lunch box
The mini jump pack is like the size of a big wallet
I know you want to start a vehicle but at home, on the road in case ???

Most of the shops up home have them it will do several cars before showing half way , I was able to do a bobcat with it but that did take it down to half from full.

Then you will want the mini.

You can buy a basic one or with all sorts of accessories to charge all sorts of electronics.

 

Bet the local court house has a person to help point you in the direction , remember a verbal agreement is worth the paper it is written on. This now becomes a business deal keep you head in the game, fair is all you try to aim for.

They won't come out to where I hunt, and there is no cell phone reception anyhow to call them there

Mine is several years old and different but I think it is equivalent to the XP 1? now. Last month used it to start someones vehicle at 20 below zero, at first the starter would just click once thought the battery was totally dead, and may have been. But after waiting long enough and trying again enough times it finally did start. When you need them they are great to have and small enough that they are out of the way. I have also used it to run electronics and charge the dogs collars when off grid. But only last so long heavy draws. What I like is they don't loose their charge in the cold and I can keep it in the truck. Heck I have to bring my GPS in at night right now because the screen won't work in the cold.

I went with the largest size that I didn't need and no regrets.

 

This is the one I have but I believe it's been replaced with a less bulky model.

I'm bad about recharging mine. I'll top it off when I think about it, but it sits in the truck for months, works every time.

 

How big/small is that one?

 

It's about as big as a smaller battery but not heavy. The newer model is lower profile.

Hey Greg.

Hey Sue

XP-1. It will give you 4 or 5 jumps off of a charge. And will recharge your phone. And solve world hunger.

Well maybe not the last one.

I was hoping for world peace, but hunger works...

 

Thanks for all the suggestions guys. I'll get one probably the first of the month

 

I just realized something. On 11Feb1982 I enlisted in the military for the 1st time. That'll be 36 years ago tomorrow...time flies.

 

I've got this one and the next size down for the motorcycles. Been pleasantly surprised by how much cranking power comes in a small package.
