Love this little car starter

Love this little car starter!  We bought this for my mother in law who is 76.  She had issues starting her car after coming back from vacation because she left her interior light on.  She had to call and pay for a service to come to her house to jump start her car.  We were glad she was home and didn't have this issue while she was out and about, but we still wanted to help her in case of future issues like this.  We have a HUGE and HEAVY Car jumper, but I can barely lift it and you can't really keep it in your car because of the size.  I had no idea this sort of product existed so thank you, Energizer!  This is going to be so perfect!  My mother in law loves the size and is sort of "excited" to try it out!  It also has a light on it and a place to charge your phone!  Great, great product.  My hubby wants us to get one for my car now!

This little jump starter works as described. It is a good buy and is priced right. It was shipped quickly. It is compact and therefore is easy to store.

Really great item. I had put off replacing my broken starter because I thought it would be a hassle. This thing popped in in just a few minutes, and it is as good as new. I wish I had bought it sooner.

Red Fuel SL 161 Portable Jump Starter

I bought this item on Jan. 27, 2017 at a Walmart store in Iowa, for $49.87 and tax.  I decided to look into a portable jumper because the cold weather for the last month was cold, and my car battery wasn't lasting long with my devices, AND I killed the battery 3 times (in the snow), and no one offers help anyone anymore.  I almost missed the product at the store, since it is so small, and I was expecting something bigger.  I saw this one, and read reviews about it for 30 minutes right there; not being able to believe such a small thing could start my 4.6L V8 -- from a DEAD (DEAD) battery.  The maker actually states it is good for up to V6's.  But so many other reviews I saw made it sound like it would start FOUR V8's, so I got it.  All the reviews were great.

Well, the weather warmed up (and probably my senses too), and no more dead batteries came along (figures)...  I wondered if I would ever need it, but I kept it with me.  I charged it fully on January 27th, and then thru it into the glove box, even though they say not to do if it's under 32F.  And there it sat until now, March 16th.  My battery was sooo dead, the little led clock wouldn't even run!  DEAD.  So I got my new friend out, and it showed it was still charged up to 99%!  I hooked it up like they said to (for a negative grounded vehicle, like most are these days):  positive to the positive, negative to the frame.  Easy.  But nothing.  Shifted the clamps around and secured again.  Still nothing, but still a green light.  I put the negative to the negative instead; the green still showed good, and in about 3 seconds I heard everything inside the car start running.  I looked inside and saw lights to!  So I started - the big engine - and bam!  Cranked right up!  It's better than the old jumpers we grew up with!  It like DUMPED ALL the current into the car battery - all at once!  No waiting, no grease, no problems.  It took longer to pop the hood and get the thing clamped on.  After the start, it showed my charge at 31% still!  So I charged my 2 phones as well - to full in 15 minutes!  Amazing.  I was skeptical.  It was easy, and worked (better than) promised.

Why no 5th star?  I would, but I see (now) that Stanley has a very slightly larger model, for the same price.  It says their device will TELL you when your car battery is charged up and when to start.  Not necessary - for me.  But I'm thinking of my wife and kids too.  It ALSO has the capability to be plugged into the car power adapter to jump your vehicle instead!  Really nice for my wife and daughter, I'm thinking!  They could get going again without even getting out and popping the hood - so safer!  BIG EXTRA there for me.  And finally:  Their product seems to be able to charge in the house - OR - the same vehicle you just jumped!  Perfect also, as I travel a lot and don't have many 120AC outlets around.  So I either need to find a place to plug mine into again soon, or I need to buy an inverter to plug into my car too.

All in all, the product out-performed its claims.  BUT, for the same price and a slightly larger product, you'll get 3 great other features with Stanley.  My decision:  I will definitely NOT say to not get this product.  But for me, I will keep this one with me, and until Red Fuel / Schumacher comes out with the next model, at this pricepoint and with those other features, I will look into Stanley's for my other family vehicles.

This is a great compact car jump starter. I bought this for peace of mind just in case my car decides to not start on some of these cold winder mornings we have in the northeast. Although I have not tested the jump starting capabilities of it yet, this unit appears to be well built and solid. I don't think this unit will have any trouble jump starting my 4 cylinder accord. It is fully charged and in the trunk of my car ready to go!

This jump starter also has a built in flashlight that is much brighter than expected. Almost as bright to be a replacement flashlight. As a added bonus, this jump starter can act like a portable power pack to charge you cell phone with the included USB to micro, lighting, and old-style iPhone connector.

Does exactly what it supposed to do. A little battery like this can jump start a car, that's awesome. Very compact, great item for the trunk for emergency.

Borrowed my step-dad's unit and it worked like a charm.  Was originally so confused by the concept of this starter, but with a car dead in the garage and not being able to roll it out to gain access to the battery to jump it, this all became crystal clear. Buying one for myself. Would recommend to anyone who is single or only has access to 1 car.

I LOVE this little machine!!!  I recently purchased a vintage Alfa Romeo and the battery, although it is good, does not hold a charge.  If I don't drive the car every couple of days the battery goes dead.  I purchased this little baby and have it in the trunk.  It works like  a dream.  Not only does it get my car started when I hear the dreaded click, click, click; it gives me the confidence to drive the car because I don't worry about getting stranded somewhere if the battery runs dead.  I love this thing!

Brought this for my brother in-law and he loves it.  I have a different brand, but these small car jump starters are great. It was very cold recently and my car wouldn't on the day I gave it to him. It started right away and it didn't use up that much charge, he also helped someone else who couldn't start his car. The old big version would have to be recharged right after one boost. I would recommend this to other drivers and it fits in the glove department or purse.

Lives up to its description. My (small) car had a weak battery and this pulled me through the couple of weeks before I could afford to replace it. Jump-started perfectly every time, though you have to exercise a minuscule amount of patience. Now I keep the charger with me in the car in case someone else needs assistance.

I love this little guy. I can go a week without emptying it. It's the perfect size for the car. I haven't used it on a long road trip, so I don't know how it will work for that. But it's safe to say that you can just empty it out when filling up at the next gas station. It's helping me keep my car in check, clean, and free of trash. I highly recommend this product.

This review is for the PowerGo 12 Volt Car Battery Jump Starter Booster and Power Bank. I must say that I really do love these lithium battery powered portable jump start kits. I personally have a kit in each of my three autos and picked this unit up as a gift for my daughter.

They are relatively inexpensive and every parent should ensure that one is in every vehicle they and their children use. The small size and versatility of these units can be a real life saver under the right circumstances. Many kits easily fit under the seat or in the glove box and only need to be examined and charged about every 6 months.

Im not going to go on about all the various parts in the kit for charging your cell phone or laptop or about the flashlight. Im just interested in its ability to start my auto when the battery is dead.

I decided to see how many times it would actually start my ratty old 96 Taurus ( 3.0 liter V6) before it ran out of juice. I decided I would start the car about every 10 to 15 minutes during the day and keep up with the tally.

Starting a cold engine is a bigger drain on the battery and I expected to get about a dozen or so starts before the power bar drifted down to the 2 bars (50% charge) that the manufacturer recommends as the minimum reserve capacity to have available for starting an engine.

Well, after 30 starts I just got tired of fooling with the thing. I ran the interior fan for about 10 minutes and ran the power windows up and down a dozen times and the battery was still displaying a 75% charge. I'm really impressed with the capacity of this power bank! I really believe this tiny unit would easily start 60 to 70 small autos with 4 and 6 cylinder engines...and it fits in your back pocket.

I'm positive this unit has enough juice to start your car a few times in an emergency or when you need to start your auto due to a battery issue, having one of these kits in all of your car is a no brainer in my opinion.

Even though I really do think it is an exceptional product and value I have rated this unit with 4 stars as I have only had it for 2 weeks, if it is still performing properly in 6 months I will come back and upgrade to 5 stars.

I received a discount from the manufacture to purchase this product in exchange for an honest review of my experience with the product. Only products that have proven to me they can function for at least 6 months will get 5 stars.

So far it's working great on my corvette battery. I don't drive it daily and I'm gone a lot for my work. the car seems to start very strongly now each time I use it after I have been gone for a while. Very happy with the purchase. I was skeptical of the cigarette lighter adapter but it works great and is easy to connect without having to open the hood.

We love this jump starter.  We bought it after one we had bought from Autosport several years ago pooped out.
This charger does exactly what we want it for.  We use it as a backup for a 1995 Porsche 968 we very rarely drive.  When we used it we put the charger in the trunk in case the car won't start after we turn it off when we are out somewhere with it.
We also love the air compressor.  It is perfect for adding air to auto tires.

Having been someone who has driven many old cars and was even trapped in a McDonald's drive through when my car battery died, I truly appreciate and love this product.  It is small enough to keep easily in your trunk.  It tests the battery, alternator, and starter which is VERY convenient because when you car suddenly won't start you are all sitting there speculating, well, is it the battery?  Ignition switch?  Starter?  WHAT!?  I don't always feel like hanging out at my local Auto Zone.  The jumper cables that come with this are an added bonus and the safety I feel knowing this is in my trunk is priceless.  Would make a very caring gift or maybe you just want to make sure your teen or wife is not constantly getting stranded somewhere with a dead battery (which happened to me all the time as a young lady).
