    Best/lightest battery jump start to buy?

    Board,

    I'm looking for a compact/small and lightweight battery jump start and would like to know if you have exprience with any of the below ones quoted or even if you can recomend me one. Basicaly I want tWo of these, one for my lady for her Jeep and one for my car w/o carrying the heavy portable jump starts we see commonly arround the shops.

    Any reviews/feedback is very much appreciated.




    This LiPo battery seems to be the nicest of all but LiPo batteries are not that "trust" from what I have worked with them in the R/C world. Though, might be a improved unit in this case?






    The Energizer; not sure about it's weight..?






    How about this JNC?

    Three way works; Looks like a acid ATV battery with some clamps adapted?

      Like the first one eh? That's what I think as well. I might go with the JNC unit and see how it perform. Wish it could say the weight.

          I've never used one of these but as far as the LiPo goes, they have the highest continuous output possibilities. Just don't puncture one of the cells.

            or drain the voltage below 3v or so because it won't recovery by itself ever, after a recharge.

                      There's nothing to moderate anymore.

                        FIXED! Not sure why I typed "his" rather than "her". Thanks

                          Voltphreaks VPH-750 with jumper leads attached to it.

                          You asked for best and lightest, right? Whole setup would be 6lbs.

                            A 3c lipo would only give you 11.1 volts. A 4c would be around 14.4, but then there's always a chance of them blowing up. Lol

                              Holy....! That's gotta be the most badass for it's size and weight battery for car ever made! That actually is a battery for being used as that instead of a jump start but with some cables/clamps attached-adapted to it can work as battery jump start right?
