Here's one from All-Battery, who I've had good luck with their other stuff:

Propel® Portable Lithium-Polymer 12V Car Jump Starter w/ Built-in Light **SALE**

$40 with promo code: New2016

And looks identical to one of the Anti-Gravity kits which normally cost $80 - so that might be a pretty smoking deal.

My two XP-10 units were delivered today. They're partially charged, so I'm topping them off. So far, no fires or explosions.

The instructions say that they'll hold a charge for about six months. I'm going to add a recurring Google calendar reminder so that I recharge them every six months.

I tried charging my iPhone with it: No problem.

I tried charging my Dell laptop with it: The computer said it wasn't charging; I don't know if it's not giving enough juice, or if there's some other issue. Maybe it's getting some power, I'm not sure. Regardless, this isn't a big issue for me since my laptop rarely leaves the house.

So far so good.

I had the same experience. Mine is now in the trunk of my car.

BTW . . . mine works.

Now I'm off to do some battery shopping....

HA! niiiice.

we told you you need a new battery

Im not gonna say it BUT..........................


Glad your new toy has performed admirably

Yup.

It has started every time since New Years, but it has turned over slowly a couple of times. So I knew it was coming, but I thought I could stretch it out a little more, and I felt more confident doing that with the XP-10 in the trunk.

And sure enough, it worked out okay today. The battery died at home, and the XP-10 started it right up. Then I replaced the battery anyhow.

im 2 for 2, gun and cars, next itll be planes

My first six-month reminder popped up today, giving me some advance notice that I had to charge by July 1st . . . so realistically it's been about 5.5 months.

The batteries have an LED indicator of charge level. Both of my units showed 4 out of 5 lights, indicating that they are still mostly charged. One of them has been used once to jump the car.

I charged them anyhow . . . back in the cars until December.

Thanks for the mid-term review, I was still on the fence with this. Not sure what size motor you have, but my mustang has a big v8 and needs a ton of cracking amps to start up. If you still have lots of juice left over I'm sure it'll crank my motor no problem.
Time to look into getting one of these! And great idea with setting a calendar reminder to charge up every 6 months!

I, uh, have a, ah, 4-cylinder CR-V.




It's very manly.

If it has a waguns sticker on it, you pass the manly test LOL

I've got that covered.
