Portable Jump Starter Recommendation
Question: Which quality Portable Jump Starter do most folks recommend? The last time AAA had to come by the house and jump start my former Subaru a few years ago I didn't bother to look at the manufacturer. Thanks.

I've got a Noco GB70 that's started anything I've put it on.

Noco GB40. If you watch it on Amazon or Home Depot you can get for around $70.

I have a Dewalt 1400 jump starter with a built-in air compressor. I have used it many times and am very pleased.

I have a NOCO GB70 and an Audew 2000A thatI picked up in December. I used the NOCO on my FJ cruiser the other day and it worked great.

Same.

Small enough that I just carry around in my work bag during the winter.

NOCO, go to their site and see which one they recommend for the vehicle you want to start.

Saw a local tow company jumping a car and asked him. He had about 4+ “Jump N Carry” ones. Was happy with them. So I went and got one. Been running strong for over 7 years.

I have the Noco

Works like a charm.

It was so good my ex-wife took it when she left and I had to order a new one.

I have a Noco GB20 that I've used a couple of times to jump other people's cars and it's been fantastic. I can only imagine an updated or higher-end model would be at least as good.

This is the cats meow for jumping a battery, putting air in a tire, etc.

What's really nice is the air compressor features, you set the air pressure and walk away. It automatically stops at the set pressure. It'll run for 10 mins or until it gets hot, then shuts off. But automatically comes back on and continue where it shut off... very nice for topping off tires. I no longer pull out a normal air compressor or hose.

Has USB ports, 12 volt lighter plug, 120 volt outlet, led light, charge indicator...

I have a NOCO GB40.

I recommend getting a hard case to store it. Using the supplied bag they give you can allow something to accidentally bump the power switch on.

+++ NOCO. And Nismo is right. The little bag sucks!

I’ve been looking at this one, but it doesn’t seem to have many good reviews. I specially like the air compressor which is a nice point to me.

You can get one of these to go with a jumper.

Both are still small enough to fit in a shoebox sized spot.
