Customer reviews

« Great. Better than jumpstarting with another car! »

This thing is Awesome! Starts your car as soon as you turn it on. I tried using my truck to jump my car and it took way longer than the Stanley jump starter. Probably the best investment I made. I definitely recommend this product.

« Lacks an Automatic Float Charging System »

This unit should provide the capacity needed to jump start most cars. However, there are a few things to note:

1. This unit does not have an automatic float charging system. This means you can't just leave it plugged in & expect it to maintain a full charge. Instead, you must periodically unplug it and replug it in (at least every few months). If you forget, you will not only not have a charged unit when you need it, but, the battery can become damaged as well if left to fully discharge. Chargers costing as little as $20 have this feature; There's no reason to exclude it on a unit like this.

2. This unit does not include a power cord. Instead, you will need to use an extension cord; it needs to be a single dongle version because of the design of the unit.

3. This unit does not include a storage compartment. Not a big deal, but, if you have some accessories you want to tote (like a power cord or inflation needle), you won't have a convenient place to store it.

I've also had two PowerStation units. One died within a year and the other still works (I think). Time will tell how the Stanley stacks up.

« All Purpose »

Can start car and pump up tires. Easy to understand and use. Also, can take with you and restart car again en route if accidently kill the engine, etc.

« It works as proposed »

Got the unit,charged it and used it immediately. Inflates tires well and it started a friends car whose battery was dead. All in one.
