    We had similar in the tow trucks. Worked ok. Big and heavy. Not like the small pocket ones now. Still if you have the room I think the bigger ones are better.
    You can charge them from 12 volt. I would charge from the main batt. During mulit uses.

    I've never bought a jump pack, I carry a set of jumper cables in every vehicle. All the pack experiences I've heard about seems a LOT of them have run dead when folks go to use them. :notsure:

    Some discussion here: (haven't read it all)
    No "need" for 2nd Battery anymore?

    I have a 12 yr old version of this at the house: (can be wheeled in where you can't get a vehicle to jump off of).

    It does happen

    Main body ecu's
    A jump pac is the only thing I would use now. Just not worth it.

    Not on my lawn tractors. Those small tires are a bitch to mount especially when wheel bearings are seized on spindles.
    I'm not about to spray engine starter in tire and throw a match at it. Maybe 30 yrs ago but not now.
    So after a 200$ urgent care visit to stitch my thumb up, missing out on hunting season, still flat tire and stem laying next to it, months of stretching thumb so I can use it again I am sold .
    I'll give 2 to ss since he has access to atvs and boat trailers etc.

    No I was just thinking about our trucks and maybe someone thinking of trying to use it.
    For atv use, it's a specific repair. Kinda like slime.

    If they have taken the metal stems out of the tires then this could save the day.

    I just felt like typing shit this morning..

    I've been happy with Noco jump starters thus far but only had mine for around a year. Surprisingly compact.
