@BrokenDragontooth it will recognize being hooked up to the battery on its own. A little engine looking icon appears on the screen. If the battery is below 2 volts it won't recognize the battery. If it's that low, it needs to be put on a charger, not a jump pack.
How do you jump start a car with this It doesn't have a button for it? Do you just put the right clamps on the right sides and it will turn on or what? I am confused. Please help
Yes, if the polarity is correct, an engine will appear on the screen. If the battery is completely dead, it will not detect the polarity and will not power up the box.
And I found that if it cannot Jumpstart the car the first time wait and listen for the sound it will make and try again but of course do not leave any electrical things on including leaving the door open the car battery usually needs to be somewhat charged before it will stop being inherently a draw on the power going to the starter
Sorry about that, jump starting is really easy. 1) you must have over 2 volts of power or it won't recognize the correct polarity. If you are under 2 volts it won't work. 2) hook red to +, black to -. 3) if you see two clamps and a flashing engine symbol you are good to go. If you see arrows pointing left and right switch your cables. If you see nothing you need to charge your battery since it's below the minimum allowed voltage. Hope this helps
@@macsboneyardbuilds that’s what I ended up doing….i couldn’t get anything to come up. The battery was DOA and needed replacing. Thanks for the response
I forgot to say in the video. If the battery is completely dead, it will not recognize the polarity and not allow a jump start. You need to put the battery on a charger and get a little voltage in it so it can see the polarity.
Mine has been going strong since day one. A bunch of people have problems, but they are usually trying to jump a completely dead battery. The instructions say it has to have at least 2 volts to operate. If you're under 2 volts it needs charged, not jumped.

Once you have it hooked up to the battery how do you turn it on or off there is no on/off button

How do you charge it
There is a port in the back. It comes with a standard AC charger.
So, when you purchased you plug it in at home or garage and let it fully charge…. Is that right? I have no clue
That is correct. It took about 8 hrs. to fully charge.
@ Thank you for replying.
You n3ver stated how to engage the jump starter….just got it and can’t get it to do that

No problem. Glad you figured it out.
Great review, just bought one before I watched your video
Did anyone figure out to engage jump starter?

How do you charge it? Does come with a charger?
Yes. Comes with a standard 110volt AC to DC converter style charger.
How long to charge? Been charging mine, and it’s staying at 11.0V
I left mine over night. Was at 12.5 by the next morning.
@ had to return mine and get a new one thanks
I have seen some of the reviews online that said it was dead out of the box. Probably poor quality control at assembly. Hope the new one works.
absolutely worthless
