Looks good as long as you keep it in your car and have it when you need it. I've been thinking bout getting one for a few years now. Seems there's always something I need (or want) more.
I bought one for my S10 when it developed the attitude of not wanting to cold start. It wouldnt make enough fuel pressure to trip the fuel regulator. diaphragm when the battery had less than 10 volts. Just hooking the battery pack up was enough to get it started. Mine has a flashlight on one side and a port that used to be called a cigarette lighter in years past. I have used it to recharge my phone and Mp3 player.
Everybody should one or more jump boxes . I keep one charged all the time in the event we loose power . I can charge my phones and cameras ,computer and some flashlights . Plus my boat or Dee's car or my truck .I've got a couple of them . I even have an old 12vt TV and VCR which we have used during one of the past Hurricanes .
I have their SL1397 jump starter and will be using it to see if it works on one of my vehicles which has a dead battery. I also have another battery boaster which I could not get to work and it still don't.
Wow ! ... I was looking at that just yesterday, do a follow up on it please. I've been wanting one since I left the ignition on my truck a awhile back at work.
I have a 1000A Schumacher SJ1290. It looks the same as your insta-power unit. The manual is unclear on one issue. Does it harm anything by having this insta-power unit plugged into the wall socket while using it to start the car? The instructions say that the charge light will change to green when the battery in the booster is full charged, but mine stays red. After I unplug it from the power cord and push the button on the front of the unit, the light changes from red to green.
