    Audew Car Jumper
    1500A / 20000mah

    Disclosure: I was given this unit for free, to test/review.

    I haven't had a huge opportunity to get many jumps on the starter, but I was able to get at least one ( I purposely needed to drain the truck battery ) prefer not to cycle my battery like this on purpose lol. I will check back in after some additional jumps and use from the pack, to see how it holds up over time.

    To drain the battery I left everything I could on, once my auxiliary lights stopped working and headlights dimmed out....I knew we were there! Initial voltage check was 6.8V lmao but that slowly rose back up to nominal 10.6ish. Tried to start the truck....click click - battery was dead, as expected.

    The Audew started out charged at 100% and after one jump 98%. The unit started my 5.7 Tundra with no issues, even with the additional load ( amb temp 48f ). The Audew was attached to my battery. I then turned on a lot of consumers to see how that would affect it (radio, all interior lights, all exterior lights including many auxiliary LED lights). Boom, easy!

    There are some additional features that I think is what makes this stand out. Obviously it's a jump pack...which means for emergency use. This could include charging phones, tablets, etc. While the spec states a 20000mah battery, it charged my 11560mah iPad battery one time ( pack 100% start and 2% end ). I reached out to Audew and they stated the output conversion rates are about 75 to 90, depending on unit. So to me this means that they built into the end user display the safety margin to keep the lithium batteries within operating ranges for longevity ( speculation on my end of course, but it would make sense). While 11560 is closer to 55%, it will charge a standard cell phone battery multiple times no issue. Cell phone quick charge works as well :)

    The 15v (10A max) outlet is actually a very nice surprise, and very convenient for a lot of things that I didn't think of until I got the Audew pack. I can use this pack to run my 50qt 12v fridge (7.8A at 100% load). It can take the temp down from ambient 26c down to 3c in about 30-45min and maintain that temperature for about 3 hrs. I do need to say though, there have been a few cycles that the battery discharged more quickly...but there are some ambient conditions that would affect this. All trials completed with an empty fridge.

    So as you can see, this jumper is actually quite versatile. I have previously been using a competitors unit with good success as well. The Audew has some cool advantages in it over some of the competition, and it also includes many accessories and such that make it a great value that shouldn't be overlooked when shopping!
