Looking for the most powerful battery jumper? Read on... Nov 21, 2007
By G. Powers
If you can't start your car or truck with this thing, you have bigger problems than a dead battery! This unit is one of the most powerful portable battery jumpers out there at 1700 peak amps. That's almost twice as powerful as many other lower quality competitors.
This is not a "multi-purpose" unit that you will find at the local big box store. It's not an air compressor, radio, flashlight, food processor and battery jumper. It's only a battery jumper, although it does have a "cigarette-lighter" style socket to power other items if needed.
This is a great product, but consider this before you buy it: This model may not be for everyone. This is a professional grade item and is not intended to be used by people unfamiliar with proper battery jumping procedures. Here's why I say this:
1. Some battery jumping devices have a feature that will alert you if you hook the jumper cables up incorrectly. This unit has no such feature.
2. Some have safety switches that remove power to the cables while you are hooking them up. This unit has no such switch.
3. Some battery jumpers have sophisticated chargers that won't allow you to overcharge the battery. Not this one. When you plug it in to recharge it, you can't just walk away for 2 days and let it charge. You have to monitor it during the recharging process.
4. Some battery jumpers have a set of generic lights to tell you the current state of charge of the booster box. Not this one. It has a voltmeter on the front and you need to know how to read it.
Now, none of these items is THAT big of a deal, but I thought it was worth mentioning. If you aren't familiar with how to properly jump-start a car, you may be better off with another model with more "dummy-proof" features.
One last comment: This Jump n Carry comes with a redeemable certificate for a one-time replacement unit. If (for ANY reason) this unit stops working during its lifetime, you send it back to the company with the certificate (along with $50) and they will repair or replace it, no questions asked. Not a bad deal!
Bottom Line: If you need the most power in a single-purpose jumper box, buy this one!

Jump n Carry 660 Feb 06, 2007
By Joe Vertucci

excellent transaction!!! great battery boosters! no need for a separate transformer, the unit plugs directly into the wall!! Being the owner of a car dealership, we put these through the test, using them 10-15 times a day, we have had other makes in the past, but nothing lasts as long as these, plus they give you a $40 one time coupon in case anything breaks,wheather you did it ot not , they will give you a new one. no questions asked!!!

 One fine product Oct 29, 2006

The Jump-N-Carry has suprised me with its terrific power output. Also, suprising is the fact that although it was charged 2 1/2 months ago, I have had not had to re-charge it. It continues to have a terrific charge of power available!

 nice unit for occasional use Aug 08, 2009
By Mark Twain
"Chris"
First off let me just say that this unit is a heck of a lot better than the ones in your box stores. I have a construction company so there is always something with a dead battery everyday. This unit works good for the first, second, and 'sometimes' third jump but that's usually it. After about 8 days of heavy use I can only get the unit to recharge to about 70%- I may return it. My only other complaint is that when you are in a hurry and wrap the cables back up its very easy to slice into the cable with the handles.

The Best Walk around Jump Starters Oct 24, 2007
By Daniel T. Caswell
"packard Man"
The Jump-N-Carry products are the best jump starters around. My dad has a used car lot and bought one of these several years ago. He uses it once every few days and it has outlasted 3 of the cheapo knock off ones that I've purchased in the past. I know they use this brand at some of the auto auctions I've been to also. They are the Best!
