    Portable Jump Starter Recommendations

    Anyone have any recommendations for portable jump starters? I've narrowed down to the following three. Currently my fleet is m20 and m30 powered so I don't need to crank over any huge engines. The first one is similar to one I used at one of my first jobs that always seemed like a champ. Second one is somewhat similar to the first one but cheaper and still highly rated. Last one is one of the small lithium ion types. I'd be nice to have something small enough to throw in the glove box.

    I carry one of these Stanley jump packs but it also has an air compressor, electrical outlets, usb port and a light. It's a bit more and a bit larger but it's come in handy more times than I can count.

      Iv got almost the same thing. Its a lot bigger then some of the jump only units, but the battery lasts a lot longer with more jumps per charge, and I love being able to inflate the tires on my truck after airing down for a trail. Plus if for some resin shit hits the fan and my car dies, I can charge my phone in an emergency situation.
      Iv also used it many times to help other people out.

        we use NOCO genius boosters at my work. we use the bigger $200/2000 amp ones to jump everything from f150s to komatsu wheel loaders. they work great and have held up for well over a year. i asked for the smaller 1000 amp/$100 one for christmas because i like them so much i want one for home use.

            I own a Stanley jump pack.

            It's fairly bulky, but it has a compressor and USB outlets. I use it all day (or weekend) for rallycross airing up and down tires and jumping the odd broken car. I used it all the time to jump the Explorer before I replaced the battery. It has never died on me. I'm fairly certain it has a motorcycle battery in it, so it is a lot bigger than most.
