There is no internal battery in this, it is just a charger with a higher than usual output current for starting purposes, with a very brief time limit on the duration.

Hi these units are built fairly solid and should last a while IF you don’t abuse it. I charged battery to 100 then did alternator test. It gave 87. I’m interpreting this as alternator not charging, correct?
You can EASILY check your alternator with a simple multimeter. Just start your car and use the multimeter on your car battery. It should show over 14 volt. If yes your alternator is working. If still around 12 volt your alternator is dead and need to be replaced.
Ερώτηση \, μπορείς με αυτό να φορτιζεις την μπαταρια του αυτοκινήτου ενώ ε'ιναι και συνδεδεμένη με το αυτοκίνητο? Ή πρέπει πρώτα πάντα να την αποσυνδέεις απο το αυτπκίνητο?
Nope, I have the same one at home. When there is no battery attached to the charger, it's just doesn't give any electricity to the cables. Furthermore, I found this video because my car battery voltage has dropped down to 6,5 V which makes the charger to "think" it's a fully charged 6V battery and doesn't allow me to start charging it as a normal 12V one. 🤦♂️
@@ch3ch2ch2cho just curious, did you by any chance think it was also a 'portable' jump starter, i.e unit could be charged and jump start a car in the middle of nowhere, judging by the size and weight of it, I unfortunately did, no where on the box, or instruction manual does it make that clear 👍
@@ch3ch2ch2cho you could trick that charger into thinking it's a higher voltage by using a good battery attached to the depleted one, to get it to start charging. Leave it for a bit then detach the good battery from the depleted battery, worth a try anyway, most likely a youtube video on it somewhere...
BONJOUR est ce que c et compatible avec les batterie start and stop et est ce que on n et pas obliger de debrancher la batterie de la voiture ,on peut brancher directement sur la batterie sans demonter les cosse de la batterie ??merci
Yes, unfortunately, it's a jump starter, but has to be plugged in, certainly caught me out. I bought it because I thought it was a portable power pack as well as a charger, certainly big and heavy enough to think so, but no where on the box, or even the instruction manual, does it make this clear, and I think a lot of other people have been caught out by this also. Excellent build quality, useful, but not exactly what a lot of people assume it to be, cost me €54 👍
@@jamesgallagher1992 I think they brought out another, that included a jump pack separate from the unit, but priced accordingly, more expensive. So double check that unit because the unit I checked was 6 - 8 months ago 👍
You can use it to jump start a car BUT you have to have the unit plugged into a mains power supply at the same time. It does not the same as a chargeable jump starter that you could use to jump a car without having access to a mains power supply.

There is no internal battery in this, it is just a charger with a higher than usual output current for starting purposes, with a very brief time limit on the duration.
very dissapointing product. there is no boost charge, it hasn't the option on it anywhere, and it says that it has 3 charging amperage. That is also not true. The box states 5,7,and 17 amps of charging but the charger has only 2 options, slow and fast. How is slow? which current is it? 5 or 7 amps? And don't get me started for the charging error. When it reads voltage of just 13.1 v it cannot charge the battery, it AUTOMATICALLY GOES TO START MODE and not charge mode. shitty product.

You clearly not knowing what you are reviewing. This charger is total crap. You tested on full charged battery...try on less full accu...than you see what crap this is ! Do not buy !
Useless product. Doesn't allow me to select anything and it is stuck reading 0.0. Got an alternative one elsewhere and it did the trick. Don't waste your money on this rubbish product.
When the 12V battery is completely empty and shows less than 6V, the charger recognizes it as a 6V battery and does not allow proper charging, charging it with a voltage of 4.2V and shows on the Display that it is a 6V battery and fast charging is not possible. Bought today 14.11.2024. and I was already disappointed.
thankyou all.
I have tried to jump start using your instructions, still not starting.Any suggestions..
Peace.
This is very well explained👍🏽
can this charge fully discharged battery below 9V for example?
For a jump start, it must be connected to the power line?? Socket??
Yes
Yes 230volt power
or 800 watt inverter
Good luck with it when you are stranded at a parking place 😂

Which charging settings to put for flooded start battery? Thank you
Thanks for the upload, so this must be plugged into the mains? you cannot charge unless it is plugged in. Not portable?
Yes correct 220v
Much more informative than the booklet! Many thanks
I have this one but charging voltage goes up to 15,4 volt in 2 min then charger stops.
can be plugged into an inverter.
@@chielS123 That means battery has all the charge it can take and shuts charger down. A faulty battery will do this as it cannot take a full charge.
Does it have to be connected to mains to work?
Yes
Yes, There is no internal battery in this, it is just a charger with a higher than usual output current for starting purposes, with a very brief time limit on the duration.
It needs to be plugged in for a jump start? It's a chargeable battery. Why can't it be used while unplugged, like any other battery?

Thanks for the video but can you use this to start a car without a battery or is it only to assist a bad battery?
????
No I always need a battery to start any car. It boosts low battery.

Same question, hope someone answers. The sticker on top of the charger suggests you shouldn't do it, but than the whole thing becomes kinda redundant.
Great vid thanks
Is it suitable for lithium batteries?
Thanks for the video. Can it be used for electrolysis? Thanks

Hi there! How much did it cost you to buy this product? Does the charger automatically stop charging once the the battery is fully charged?
Yes it will stop charging when full. Its protected against over-charging. I bought it at the Lidl shop for 45 euro.
@@Volvoamazon62hi would you recommend this have u tried jump start. They currently for sale for 55 euro now.
I like the way it tells battery percentage.
Does it need to be connected to electricity if i want to jumpstart a car ? Or can I charge it up?

How long do it needs to be conected with 230v to full the charger so i can go to my car and start the engine..?
I saw a video where they charged from 55% to 81% in 6 minutes.
All I get on the display is 0.0 , connect battery 0.0 disconnect battery 0.0 press and or all buttons 0.0 ? What am I doing wrong?
A battery with less than 2 volts output? ...Meaning a fully drained battery. The above charger will only see 2 volts and above
I cannot find video to say if this device is jump starter or not. i have battery charger, but i want to buy jump starter starter pack?

It has to be connected to a battery of over 2 volts before it gives a reading, safety feature to prevent sparking.
