It also has a bright LED that can be viewed easily in the sunlight and the bright flashlight helps you at night time.

The jumper clamps are made from metal (so no worries of breaking or flexing these) with good clamping force and when I was doing the cold test I noticed that the clamps grip well even with wet hands. Jump starter is a tool and like all good tools, it should do its job every-time you need it and last a long time. Since the JS2000 can operate in a wide range of temperatures, it is perfect for cold mornings that can zap your car’s battery.It features exclusively USB-C charge ports, which offer the fastest charging speeds and are generally superior to the USB-B standard. This device supports vehicles with 12V batteries on gas engines (up to 8L) and on diesel engines (up to 6L). This jump starter from NOCO provides 1250 peak cranking amps and can start vehicles with engine sizes up to 6. More expensive jump starters may feature higher amperage, better-made components, and improved durability.

Along with being able to fit them into your car, the more versatile lithium-ion jump starters can charge other devices like phones and laptops.I tested its USB-C PD capabilities by charging my 13inch MacBook Pro and after one full charge on my laptop, the jump starter dropped to 33%.

We tested a number of jump starters in the Boost X line, and two of our favorites are the GBX55 and the GBX155 . If you would like to change your settings or withdraw consent at any time, the link to do so is in our privacy policy accessible from our home page.

The battery life on this jump starter is also really good too and you can easily give 20 jump starts on completely dead cars. I don’t really need all the other usb charging capabilities since I already have a USB back up power supply. So if your vehicle’s battery is completely dead (less than 2-volts) then this jump starter is not going to do any good for you.
