Should have had it in my car - needed it today in -22 my car wouldn't start at the dr. Had bought it for my old car and thought I didn't need it for my new one - yes you need to keep it in your car!
Thanks for the review! The manual reads to wait only 1 minute between attempting to start the car again if it does not start. Not 15 minutes that you said in the video, just 1 minute for battery cool down. Just saying since 15mins in the winter waiting outside can seem forever!
Just bought the unit above. Mine didn't come w/ boost button. Power upon arrival was 60%. Instructions says to fully charge before initial use. 3 concerns. 1-No indicator that unit is charging. 2-How long until 100% charged? Don't want to leave it plugged in over night, 3- Does the power button automatically adjust for a 12V battery?. What's prop setting for jump starting 12V battery? 12V - 16V - 19V?
1. My unit flashes the % as it is charging. I've never used the unit on my car yet. However, once a quarter I'll top-off the unit to keep it ready to go in an emergency (It will typically be around 90% after it sits for a few months). Since it does get pretty warm, I like to stop the charging and continue after it charges for about 90 minutes. Heat in any charging system is good to avoid and if I have the time, I'll do it in 90 minute increments. ( I don't have answers for your other questions)
I loved your attention to detail and clear explanations of all the features and how to use them. Thank you so much!

You're right, it does say 1 minute. Good Catch!
Great gift, indeed.
I find the plug in car charger great unlike him many users cary this camping off road or off grid charging it in your vehicle while engine running
What's the difference between the 600a peak and the one that looks exactly the same but doesn't say "peak"?
