I use a carry bag for a Dewalt 20v drill driver kit. It fits perfect with lots of room for extra accessories and I leave the drill driver on the shelf for handy use.
I have a GB150 And bought my wife 1 when it went on sale. Honestly is overkill for our 2 liter vehicles. But I like having more than enough. Quick story. Was at a hospital and a father brought his daughter that was going into labor. She went to labor and delivery. He came back and asked if anyone could give him a jump. I offered having my car jumper cables and the gb150. We pulled up and he has a huge truck. Like a 6 liter gas. Hooked up the gb150. Truck started within immediately. Happy purchase.
Good video. I had the Noco GB150 a year ago, but it crapped out four months before the warranty was up. Noco didn't want to warranty it because I bought it on Amazon, but they would look at it if I shipped it to them with a $75 check. I declined. I contacted Amazon and they wanted to sell me another one with a 15% discount. Nope! I did purchase the Topdon JS3000 and it hasn't failed me. Their customer support is awesome. I sure hope you can do a video on the JS3000. That thing is a beast!
I'm sorry you had that bad experience with Noco, they are usually a good product. I have heard about the Top Don jump starter, but never reviewed or tested it. That will definitely be on my list to test. Thanks for subscribing. We will be doing a lot of upcoming videos and giveaways for the holiday. Welcome aboard
I got the noco GB70 2000amp and it's been in my trunk for over 3 years now, my sister needed a jump and I'm thinking this thing won't do it, boy was I wrong, it started her car in just under 10 seconds, and I am talking a fast turn, I haven't even charged the thing in over a year, I definitely recommend it
Good video. The GBX series runs a 4 cell battery and puts out around 16volts when charged fully. If you need faster starts like it to whip the car over faster go with the GBX series. I have had a GB150 and GB70. Great tools. The updated usb c charger on the X series is a plus too. I have not had the higher voltage damage any vehicles so far so I feel it is safe. Highly recommend the GBX75 for most things. Started my 1999 ford 7.3 powerstroke with both batteries in the truck completely dead. 0volts. The GB150 did it as well just didn't turn it over as fast. Hope this info helps someone! (((Also as a side note I have had the Hulkman 8.5 and 10.0. Neither performed as well as the GBX75. They are neat jumpers but I don't see them being as reliable as noco for daily use. Perhaps the best feature on the NOCOS when you override the safety with the red boost button it will stay on until the unit dies. I had to use one of mine to get my Expedition home when the alternator went out. Ran it about 20 minutes running the fuel pump injectors and all electronics (minus lights luckly it was daytime) that can be a life saver in getting a vehicle off the road or home with a bad alternator. Don't recommend everyone doing that unless they know what they are doing though. )))
Alot of good deals on Amazon lately, I just wanted the voltage meter on the unit for sure. I will be getting the Noco GBX155 & Noco GB250 very shortly...stay tuned...lol
My son has a GBX 55 can’t imagine in the X series needing anything bigger than GBX75 for personal use? More for shop or tow truck driver where repeatedly used…my opinion
Nice, I'm thinking of getting one of these two. I have the GB40 but today I had some troubles starting a 2l diesel engine, conditions were not ideal tho...The car has been sitting in temperatures between -5°c and -20°c for the past two weeks and the battery was completely dead. It ended up working but I had to wait 3 hours to recharge the booster again. I saw that the GBX series could be charged faster but I have also read that some people have issues with the device not taking any charge at all, so I guess I will either go with the GB70 or GB150. Thanks for the video, if you do more of these, I would love to see you start a vehicle as many times as possible with both of these Nocos, from 100% charge until it doesn't work . That would be an interesting comparison. Cheers from Switzerland
The Noco GB70 will definitely jump start vehicles up to 8L gasoline and 6L diesel engines. You should have no issues. But if you want one that will jump start larger engines go with the Noco GB150. Just a matter of preference. Also, I have heard that the GBX series has some kind of issue with taking a charge like you mentioned. Im assuming it has this issue after you have had the unit for a while. I have seen a few TH-cam videos explaining this issue. But I would do a little more research on the GBX series before passing on it. We do not know what kind of usage these people put their GBX series through, that could be a big reason why their units won't take a charge (excessive usage). Also do homework before making a decision on anything.
@@HM_RELOADED My GB40 is supposed to start diesel engines up to 3.0l and it barely started a 2.0l in the cold, so I think the performances are overestimated by a significant amount, especially the number of jump starts you can do on a charge ( supposedly 20 for the GB40 ). Still I do think it is quite impressive considering the size of the product . Concerning the GBX series, if you go on the official Noco website and look at the reviews of the GBX55, there is 2 people complaining about the device being dead after only one charge. If I understand the problem correctly, it may have something to do with the chip "killing" the device when it goes under a certain voltage. I have this problem with a DJI Ronin-M camera gimbal, even if you replace the cells, the battery won't work unless you flash the chip with specialized tools and software. I ended up ordering the GB70, it should be enough for my needs hopefully, and it looks like the GB150 doesn't have the nice thin clamps.
@Jean-Michel Dupont I think you will love the Noco GB70, it is very powerful. Alot of these units have trouble jump starting in the cold, even some with the low temp technology. These lithium ion batteries are not great in the colder weather.
@@HM_RELOADED Yes all types of batteries don't like the cold, except maybe those working with nuclear radiations like RTGs... That's one of the reasons why thinking of replacing ICE vehicles with EVs is a terrible idea but that's another topic haha.
My sister kid had that one you got, the GB40, that's like one of the smallest ones and I personally wouldn't recommend that particular one, but I do currently have the noco GB70, it's probably just a step above from the one you have and it is a Beast, I've had it almost 4 years now, I have jumped many cars off with it and I just jumped my sister car off with it after almost 4 years of having this noco, I highly recommend any of the noco with the acception of the cheeper ones that cost under 100 bucks
@@HM_RELOADED Thanks I have seen the USB port works as a power bank, but I was wondering if there’s a way to connect an outlet adapter! I couldn’t charge iPhone 14 pro max which comes only with USB-C, Some of the devices we use at home don’t have a USB, so I was thinking if there’s an after market ground outlet plug adapter that can somehow be connected to the Noco so that can be used to charge other devices with no usb! We have power outage as we speak lol
@Abdulkadir Muhammad I believe there is after market outlet adapter you could use, but I will do a little more research to make sure. Actually, you could use the cigarette lighter adapter that comes with Noco, then you could buy the outlet adapter (power inverter) to plug into that cigarette lighter adapter. Then you could literally plug anything into the Noco adapter that has a plug.
@@patrickcotter5629 I just spread the positive and negative cable as far away from each other and you get about 45 inches from the furthest point. The positive and negative cables are around 22 inches each. The Noco GB150 usually holds a charge around 18+ months, but it's recommended to top it off every couple months to ensure a full charge. I have read on other posts that the Noco GB150 can hold a charge up to 24 months, so take it for what it's worth. Just top it off ever so often. So lets say 18 to 24 months
They changed the spec of the gb150. Previously it was listed as a 4000A jump starter. Now i see yours listed as a 3000A starter... Hard to pay $300 for the GB150 -3000A, when the Gooloo gt4000s - 4000A is selling for $200, fanttik t8 max -3000A for $200, and the Hulkman 10.0s -4000A for $300.
The unit comes with a charging wire for the car, and a USB A to C charging wire to charge your Noco GB150. It does not come with a wall plug. Your fastest way to charge is in your vehicle, or attaching the USB C to a wall plug you may have laying around. The part where I explained how to charge the unit, and all the wires was deleted somehow. Thanks for the comment
The Noco GB70 & Noco GB150 I use in these videos do not discharge too quickly to my experience. But these units, as well as most other portable jump starters quickly discharge depending on what size engine you're trying to jump start, how long your trying to crank over the engine, and how long the cables are connected before and after jump starting, those issues usually affect the discharge rate according to our experience.

The Noco GB150 is not to be used as a substitute for a battery. The sole purpose of a Noco GB150 is for jump starting dead batteries. But if you Google "Can the Noco GB150 safely Jump Start a ride on mower", it says YES, it can safely jump start smaller engines as well. I'm just going by what Google said. Do a little more research before trying it. I will as well
I just bought one because a competitors failed on first use. I bought this because the AAA guy said this is what he uses, and I was the 8th jumpstart that day without a recharge. If the pros use it, it must be good. That said, I hope I am not stranded again and have to use it. LOL.
The Noco GB150 is an absolute monster, many professional mechanics, tow truck drivers, AAA techs, all rely on this jump starter on a daily basis. Good choice

Do I hook up to posts for negative or do I have to find bare metal?
You could do it either way, but it may be safer to hook up the negative cable to a bare piece of unpainted metal that is not connected to electronics.
