How many times can jump starter be recharged?

I'm not sure if I got a bad one or not, but this wasn't even able to jump my friend's S2000 on a full charge. I got it for him for his birthday. Other ones I have had before though have been able to be charged up multiple times and used for several years.

That's almost like asking how many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie roll pop. I have never seen documentation or anything stating how many recharges you can do on this unit. I'm sure it will depend on the quality of battery stored inside the case and how well it is maintained. I do recall it stating in the manual that it should be charged every month. I've had a couple of these and one failed fairly soon while the other keeps going. I bought a Stanley unit to replace the one that failed and will soon be replacing my other Peak with a Stanley, its all about quality.

I don't believe so. You might want buy the Powerall Jump Starter instead for that feature.

Hello AlexisIn answer to your question about performing battery charging, and jump starting the answer is yes to both. I personally have used both functions with this charger. I inadvertently closed my seatbelt in driver's door which completely drained the battery. I used this charger for approximately two hours to recharge my battery which it did. After the charge I had no other problem starting, or operating the vehicle's devices. I have also jump started vehicles with this charger. It performed both functions. It also has a compressor to air up your tires.

Hi Ed,It will depend on the draw of the chair. I've used this to jump start a car a few times, so you might get a cycle or two of up and down, however it will not last for a long period of time. Here is the output info from the manual:Output480w Continuous (time varies based on intensity of the draw)5-min AC power 600wPeak AC output 960w

The mPower JumpIt, under normal operating conditions, will maintain 80% of its power after one year. However, we recommend that the user check the charge level every 6 months and recharge to full capacity.

According to Clore's website (http://cloreinfo.com/matching-your-jump-starter-to-your-vehicle/), they suggest charging it every 3 months when not in use.

I have started a 3.6 v6 10 times without having to recharge the starter. yes it will easily start your v8. thi is a quality product with years of service built into it.

I would not use more than 1 1//2 or 2 amp charge. Most chargers have a switch for this. Jump starting is probably not a good idea, although I have never done it.

If you connect up the jumper cables to another battery and plug it in, power will go to both batteries. However it can take 12+ hours just to recharge the battery in the jump-start from the 1/2 amp charger provided, so recharging a drained car battery can take 3 days to a week off of that. So with it taking so long (that is likely to make many think nothing is happening) most OEMs say not to do that, but it doesn't mean it won't work.

you can start directly to play with the charge already in the cars. Anyhow, recharging a car takes only 8 minutes, while you can play with it for 20-30 minutes

Just look up the jump starter. Start the vehicle. And unhook the jump starter. The jump starter should not be hooked up more than 30 seconds after the vehicle is started.

I have had my for 18 months now, I find it hold a charge well and must recharge every two-three months to keep a hot charge. I used it to jump start my Dodge ram 2500 truck to my riding mower. The bad -- the cables do like stay warp around the box all the time.

Note that the output of this jump starter is 12VDC, not 120VAC. If the small appliance can be powered by 12VDC, the run time will depend upon the amount of current the small appliance draws. This jump starter shoud be able to provide 12VDC at 1-2 Amps for a couple of days.

I honestly do not have any idea, but I will sell you the starter I purchased for cheap if you want to try it - It turns out I was having battery issues, so I still have this starter in the box.

Hello,It will definitely recharge from a 120v alternate current wall outlet. But the car battery provides only direct current, which cannot be used to recharge the jump starter. So, the cigarette plug is no good in this case. Good luck, A.F.

I'm not sure how many you want to recondition at one time, but I paralleled 2 of them, and it brought them right back to full specs. It took 2 days, but I saved myself over $400 if I had to replace them. I've had them in my coach for over 2 months now, and they're working perfectly again and retaining a full charge.

IIRC it does, the jump starting option draws a lot of power. I'll check mine when I'm in the garage and if it's different I'll let you know.
