Customer Reviews
i was looking for a car starter, that had it's own battery, i could use on dead batteries. unfortunately, none of the ones i looked at would also charge a battery, which i also wanted. so, i decided just to get a charger, and found this one, with a 'start engine' option! well, i had a dead dead battery. i hooked it up, and went thru the 90 second super charge function rather then the normal charge function. the car almost started. manuals says the unit needs 5 minutes to cool down after a super charge(it actually shows the timer during the cool down), then to do the 90 sec super charge again. i waited the 5 min, did the super charge again, and the car started.
i am very pleased. the cord management features are a bonus.
Although the charger initially told me to replace my battery, which was totally dead, I was eventually able to charge it by switching the power to the charger on and off.
My bigger complaint is actually the worthless cordwraps at either end. There is a clip to hold the 120V plug, but it is way too tight to fit the cord. The alligator clips (as seen in the picture) stick up past the top of the charger and the 12V cords form loops, making them catch on things and become undone if stored in your trunk.
Not only Made in China, but apparently designed there. This is a re-branded Vector, so I'll keep that in mind if I ever buy a good charger.
Pros
- Fan still works even though I left it over night in the rain.
- Bright orange color makes it easier to find in a pinch.
- Display is backlit, so at night you can you can see it telling you to replace your dead battery instead of charging it
Cons
- Cord wraps are worthless
- Is only designed to charge partially charged batteries
- Difficult to store
- Only helpful in the rare instances when yotr battery is sorta' dead, but not really
