Reliable jump starter

[dann2707]

Hello,

Does anyone have recommendations for a decent one? I have a small phone charger style one and it's not great.

Thanks!

I have a small phone charger style one and it's not great.

One like this? I have a similar one, only used it once but it was fine.

I think if you need more power you've gotta get a proper bigboi or a mains powered one.

Milwaukee Battery and a couple of hacksaw blades.

I've had the older version of this for nearly 20 years, still going strong

Made in Yorkshire, so it's gonna be good though isn't it

Prob a bit over kill but SIP 5024 does 12/24 use it almost daily

I’ve got a smaller SIP 1600 jump pack and it’s been great over the last few years. Cost you about £100 now.

It’ll happily start my transit when that’s flat (and it’s not really rated for that) so it’ll be fine on any normal cars.

I got one of these Noco, nice and compact and will jump start up to 6.0 petrol or 3.0 diesel.

Seen alot of recovery guys reccomend the noco jump packs, halfords stock them too. Not sure if you can get anything off them with a trade card

I don't think you can but if you shop about you will find discounts out there. I can't fault it, had a bad battery on a track day and needed it to restart the car every time and it had only lost 1 bar after 10+ starts. Everyone whos saw it is impressed with the size of it and how well it performs. If you're ever going to spend £100 on something car-related then I would buy this every time.
