polley 916 Report post Posted August 11, 2015 haha so do i, bleeding heavy thing. This is tempting, although spendy. Whats the biggest engine its been tested to work on? How many amp is it? 200 bucks isn't that expensive. Don't need jumper leads, or find another car to jump off. I'm getting one just to stash in the poleski as my last adventure I ended up swimming down the Waikato river at 9pm in the dark because of a flat battery. I would of happily spent 200 bucks at the time to avoid that! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

B.M.W Ltd 950 Report post Posted August 12, 2015 I might add information not written in the instructions that come with this device. You DO NOT drive the vehicle with the jump pack attached These don't like being charged from a car alternator You DO NOT crank continuously to diagnose faults It is used for starting a known working engine and must be disconnected as soon as the car is started as per instructions The leads must be connected to the car battery first and then plug the power pack into the leads If a fault occurs the pack will shut down and will need to be plugged into it's charger to unlock it If you buy one of these... copy these instructions Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Breaker 980 Report post Posted August 12, 2015 Looks pretty interesting, I need to replace some ones we use for forklift jumpstarting occasionally. Looks like a valid option. The old battery packs are inherently a pain to use Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
B.M.W Ltd 950 Report post Posted August 12, 2015 These are not suitable for large capacity high compression diesels Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

B.M.W Ltd 950 Report post Posted August 12, 2015 Thoughts on a 3.6L VW LPG motor suitability? pushing it? I would think so. What is the compression ratio and is the engine originally a petrol motor modified for LPG fuel Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hotwire 352 Report post Posted August 12, 2015 I have a similar version in my ute that I use for AA jump starts. Can use to start in probably 9 out of 10 non start situations. Have started multiple cars with only about 2v in the vehicle battery, V6 Commodore inc. Have started V8's too. Have also started a 2.7 diesel Mitsi that had about 8v in the battery. Need to allow the glow to work properly before cranking. Initially I charged it & started 30 vehicles without recharge - out of interest to see how it performed. Even then it was still going. As Glenn alludes to though - they are NOT intended for continuous cranking - mine is rated to 500 amp @ 5 secs only. And not to leave connected. I always analyse the situation before using it. ie never use on a flooded engine. And if it doesn't start within the time frame after a couple of attempts - i abandon it for a battery.

melowpuf 19 Report post Posted September 16, 2015 This came in handy already, luckily I left it in my car when i bought it. My car has been in at the panel beaters for a week, the parking lights had been left on and drained the battery. Car got delivered back on a tow truck. Excellent.. have my car back.. went to start it and durrrrrr no go juice in the battery. had cleared my jumper leads out of the car and noticed the little jump pack on the floor.. hopefully this will get me going. Managed to start my 2.5l diesel with dash lights very dim.. plugged the unit in, cycled the glow plugs a few times and she fired up after 4 crank sessions of 3-4 seconds. was hard yakka for the unit that's for sure.. Phew.. The unit is back on the floor of the car after charging it up last night, the indicator said it was still 99%. I thought I had mistaken it for 66% Buy one of these.. they're awesome.
