Went to start my garage queen yesterday and the battery was completely dead... My buddy hooked up his power pack to my truck and it turned over immediately...pretty cool little device, it can also charge various types of phones laptops etc. I went ahead and ordered 3 power packs, 1 for each truck for a little piece of mind

Was it completely dead as in no click at all and that little thing fired it right up? Thats pretty good.

It was clicking at first but I kept trying and completely killed it...as soon as we hooked it up the truck started right up. Looks like I'm going battery shopping today

I have something very similar to that, made by Cobra. I actually just had it replaced. My van destroyed the old one! Pcm was going bad, causing a no/hard start issue, and kept cranking it with the pack on it. Blew the internal fuse on the battery clamp, then the pack itself swelled! Lol. But these packs are sweet. Beats carrying the old big packs around.

I've had a jumper pack in the trunk for 5 years now, I think I used it once...figures the day I needed it, it was shot(wouldn't hold a charge anymore)

The new power pack I ordered is nice because it fits just about anywhere since its so small...I never new Cobra made one, I thought they only made c.b.'s and radar detectors lol
