Maybe you are happy going about jump starting your car with regular jumper cables. After all, they work fine. But what if there was a better way? An easier way? A revolutionary way to start you car when you battery has gone dead?
That’s what the Anker Compact Car Jump Starter is. This little device is a portable charger bank that fits in your glove department. Just attach it to your dead battery, and your problem is fixed. Easy as that.
And the best thing? It’s currently 68 percent off, meaning you can save $131 on it right now.
This set normally costs $190. It comes with the jump starter, jumper cables, a 15V wall charger and a 15V car charger (Photo via Amazon)
The merits of this product seem pretty clear (that is, you don’t have to rely on traditional jumper cables or another vehicle to restart your car). And it gets a lot better when you realize it functions as a phone or tablet charger as well.
But you don’t have to take it from me. Listen to the folks who have bought this product. In all, 933 customers have reviewed this jump starter. And the vast, vast majority of them have given 5-star reviews. The average rating is 4.5. Take a look at some of the testimonials:
From Daniel Peter LaCount:
Two days after I recieved this, I found myself with a dead battery and no jumper cables. I had this item in the back of my truck unopened and without the initial charge I assumed would be required. So I doubtfully opened the box and looked at the small jumpstarter. As my vehicle was complete dead where no door alarms or interior lighting worked I thought, no way. Not going to work. Might as well call a taxi to bring me to my other car and foreseen a whole day wasted on recovering my truck. But much to my surprise and great pleasure when I hooked up the charger to my truck batterry and tried starting it, it almost instantly started up. So I give it five stars for working as intended and without any initial charging. I have one of those jumpstarter/air compressor combos that are the size of a car battery and they work but not instantly like this. Very very pleased. Cannot comment on longevity but I feel the one time I needed it and used it successfully more then offset the purchased price.
And A.M. Shelley, whose review is titled “It started a HUGE pick-up!“:
I purchased this for my dad for Father’s Day in June 2015, but luckily he never needed to use it so I never posted a review. Fast forward to February 2016 when my brother-in-law’s huge pick up trunk died in my dad’s driveway. My dad got all excited to use his jumper. I got nervous thinking that it hasn’t been charged since last June & the pick up was HUGE! My brother-in-law was VERY skeptical when he saw how small the jumper was. We read & followed the directions exactly, and my bro-in-law started his truck with no problem! My dad was all proud, (I was wiping my brow thankful that my gift wasn’t a waste!) and my bro-in-law asked where in the world I purchased something like this! Of course I told him Amazon! He was impressed, my dad was showing off, and I got the credit for getting a great gift. It was a win win win!
After that day, I told my dad he should charge it now, but of course he didn’t & two weeks later his own Ford Explorer died right before he had to go to work! He used the thing AGAIN & his car started no problem & he was able to go get his battery changed out before it died again.
In short, this thing was fully CHARGED almost a YEAR AGO & it started a huge pick up & a Ford Explorer within weeks of each other. Amazing!
And magoo:
UNBELIVABLE!! this little charger can jump a COMPLETELY DEAD 12 VOLT CAR BATTERY. I took this charger to my mechanic to see how good it would work on starting a dead car battery. He had a car in his shop that has been there for two years and wouldn’t start. We connected it to it’s COMPLETED DEAD BATTERY. He turned the key and all the lights, bells and whistles went on. Then he turned the key and the car started immediately. We waited a couple minutes and tried it again and it started the same way. He checked the jumper cables and the red one was just a little warm, no big deal. Compact & lightweight.
Imagine your car has a dead battery and you call the motor club. They show up with a $60,000 tow truck and the guy pulls this thing out of his pocket and starts your car.
Feel free to read the other 930 yourself.
