When you get in your car or truck and turn the key you expect to hear the engine start up, and it happens so often you don’t even think about having a low or dead battery… But instead, you hear the dreaded “click click click” or the engine struggling to turn over. The common response to this problem is “hey, get a new battery!” or “just have someone jump your car!”, and sometimes those are the correct answers but other times you just the need the car to start so you can be on your way to your appoint, even when no ones around.
One (of the many) item I keep in my car is a Lithium Battery Jump Starter/ Power Bank. These small and palm sized Jump Starters only 2 pounds or less and are the easiest way to give your vehicle a powerful electrical boost to start your engine and get you on your way.
These Jump Packs are easy to use in just a few quicks steps:
- Plug the jumper cables into the jump starter
- Attach the red positive cable to the positive terminal (+)
- Attach the black cable to the negative battery terminal (-)
- Press the On button, wait a few moments and then start your car
- Remove Jump Pack cables from your car battery.
- Be on your way!
These easy-to-use Jump Starters come in many sizes and with different features, the one I personally carry is this Jump Starter Flashlight, I like the extremely powerful 300 lumen flashlight feature along with its ability to provide 600 amps of jump starting power. These Lithium Jump Starters typically hold enough charge to start your car for up to six months before they need recharged. Other Jump Starts are available depending on your needs, for smaller engines there’s the V6 Jump Starter, for medium to large there’s a V8 Jump Starter, and for large and big diesel engine we recommend the V10 Jump Starter. All of these Jump Starters feature USB outlets to charge phones and other USB powered devices.
