Pros

This new unit has a strong battery, which easily started a vehicle with a v6 engine in cold temperatures (30's) fully recharging this portable jump starter took less than half an hour after starting the pickup. Takes a while for tires but it does what...  Read More

Schumacher definitely takes a * but keeps on working! Couldn't be happier with an old version of this product. I suspect it tumble many times in shipping without issue -as designed.

Awesome jumper. Bought this for grandson about to take first long road trip. Should be one in everyone's vehicle. This booster pack is 7 years old and is still going strong.



Cons

First one battery quit within 3 uses for boost. Didn't use it again until march of 2022, and the air hose was cracked and leaking. Poor workmanship on hose.

This portable power device is to be avoided. A very shabby piece of equipment to market for automobile service. It is completely useless.

Was told by a prius/hybrid mechanic that many jump starters don't work with priuses.
