    Default Jumper Box

    I want one of those portable power supplies/jump starter to throw in the truck.

    I looked at the Dewalt ones and they had horrible reviews.

    Anybody have experience with these things?

    I have a Stanley 1000. Has jumpers, usb, cigarette outlet and an air hose. Saved me many times with a low tire, dead battery on older truck, camping, etc. You have to charge it up every so often but worth the money hands down.

    Their battery chargers and jump packs are second to none.

    I second this. We have owned several brands. I can guarantee you we use a jump box more than your average person. The Noco 150 by far is the best I’ve ever purchased. It jumped the ambulance off that has sat for months with two bad batteries.

    Got one for Christmas 2 years ago I think. If it dies today, I have gotten the moneys worth out of it. It has pumped up tractor tires after punching tubes, charged phones on remote camping trips, pumped Polaris tires in remote locations just to name a few. Always stays in my truck unless it is charging.

    I walked into Walmart one night and they had 2 of the EverStart Maxx models on clearance... Something like $20 a piece. 600 peak amp models. I figured what the hell and bought one to throw in the truck. Wish I had bought both of them. It's done everything I've asked it to do from 4wheelers to small tractors.

    I've got 4 trucks with little refrigerators and the girls never, ever cut them off and they always park in some weird place where I can't get to them.

    I'm gonna put one of those jump boxes in each truck.

    Thanks for the heads up on the Noco. The last couple jump boxes I have had were junk. I just ordered one. FYI - amazon has them cheaper than the manufacturer website.

    If it’s super dead you have to push and hold the button where it looks like the heartbeat symbol. It will tell you in the directions. When that’s pushed and it comes on, it’s in beast mode. Noco’s are well worth the coin.

    Don't blame you. One roadside emergency call probably cost just as much as the jump box.

    I think mine is a Viking, looks like that Noco thingy and has been rock solid to be from Harbor Freight and hold a charge for months and months.

    I am going to give the Viking to one of my sons and order the Noco 150 now

    I use this one and jump a 90 hp tractor off on the regular with it. I have one in every vehicle I own.

    Love my NOCO. Bought one for me and then one for each of my sons. Holds a charge really well. The NOCO and a 1/2 battery powered impact wrench have become don't leave home without items.
    The only good thing about my imperfections is the joy they bring my friends.

    Beware the man with one gun...he probably has other faults also.
