Notes

The included carrying case is worth noting, since this is one factor that other manufacturers often overlook.
The included carrying case is worth noting, since this is one factor that other manufacturers often overlook. It?s a sturdy, hard case with a foam insert for the charger itself, along with a zippered mesh pocket that accommodates all of the accessories. There isn?t an excessive amount of excess room in the event that you?re planning to pack the jumper cables, wall charger, USB cables, and cigarette lighter adapter in there, but there?s enough room for additional USB cables or minor things, such as towelettes.

A soft flap separates the case, protecting the charger from getting scratched or damaged by the contents in the zippered pocket.


The foam insert in the bottom of the case ensures the charger itself doesn?t slide around while inside the case, and does an excellent job protecting the corners and edges from being scratched or damaged if you accidentally drop the case. Overall, the case is small enough that it should easily fit into the glove box of most vehicles.

Taking a look at these devices itself, we came away impressed by its construction. Having used other portable jump starters in the marketplace, this particular unit doesn?t feel ?cheap? in the hands. Its ABS case seems durable enough to resist scratches and drops, and the overall design is attractive without being overly flashy. The USB ports are all conveniently located with the LED flashlight, as the 15V/10A output and on / off switch are located on one side of the device. The other side of the device includes a port for the intelligent jumper cables.

Top tips with BestReviewsTips If you?re looking at what we consider the the surface of the charger, it?s prominently covered by an acrylic, high transparent lens that protects an LCD screen. If there?s anything strange concerning the design of this jump starter, it?s how much real estate the lens occupies. The information that is being displayed on the screen occupies just a small portion, leaving a whole lot empty space and having you wonder in the event that you?re missing some data. It?s mainly there to show you just how much battery life is left on these devices, along with the connection type you have established in the event that you?re either charging the jump starter, or another portable device.

Unfortunately, that section of these devices is really a fingerprint and dust magnet that's susceptible to scratches. It?s odd that so much of the top surface area is included in the lens, since very little of it is actually used as a screen. You?ll have to use extra care to not scratch the lens if you care about how the unit looks.

The display itself is really a bit dim, that will be problematic if you?re using it in broad daylight. It?s a minor inconvenience that's worth mentioning.

The bottom of these devices lists the specifications of the charger along with any certifications and standards. Your typical list of warnings and caution labels can also be found here.
