But you shouldn't have to do that. I have a small Audew jump starter and I can start my backhoe with no battery in it and I never have to let it sit on a vehicle to start it.
@@russell388877 Your truck battery is probably creating a parasitic drain on the system which probably just about halfs the amperage that's actually getting to your starter. I have this same box and it starts my cayenne turbo's V8 with no issue...it's also important to leave it plugged in when you aren't using it because there's a battery management system onboard that lightly cycles the battery to prevent the battery from going bad. Perhaps you got one that sat on the shelf at wal-mart for too long
I got the 750a version for it, and it’s sucked lol.. charged it all night and still didn’t work.. it’s been like a 6 months, wonder if they’ll still return it? 🤣🤔
That's the big question with these boxes, ground to frame or not. I always ground to frame if jumping car-car, but not with the boxes. I think as long as you connect box to battery, THEN turn the box on, you're safe. If box is on when connecting the box to the terminals, could present a spark/safety issue. I'm not a mechanic though, this is just observation :)
We use this box in all our plow trucks for winter. (curtesy if a customer needs a jump). They have never failed to jump anything we've thrown at it. Just operator error. Its an easy 4.5 out of 5 box. The usb ports would use a little work is my only complaint.
Thanks for the review. I had previous model with 1200 amps. Every time somebody needed to jump it failed even on the v6 and forget about jump in my Cadillac V8. The unit was pretty much worthless except for pumping up your tires. This new model seems do the same thing.
I have this same box and even though its fully charged nothing it is supposed to do works. Not even the light that is attached or the USB ports. Its 6 months old
I purchased this from a liquidation store and it didn’t come with manual. How do we charge the jump starter in first place? I’m trying to find the slot. I have the same model. Does this comes with a charger to charge this model ?

I bought this one as well and I'm having the same problem, connected properly to the red on the battery and the ground stud on the chassis maybe I va to wait 5 min that is the only thing I haven't done. I will give it another shot and i f it doesn't work is going back to WM... : (
Thing a pos. 1st air compressor goes. The screen ahows wrong voltage. It shows 24 volts. Stop charging at 12 or 3 bars. although it says 12.8 i hook up to my batt tester it said 20.4 volts. So they dont shut off when full like it says. It charges at .05 amp which is why it takes 3 days. Loved it for a year. Soon as warranty up boom everything in pristine condition. Used maybe 10x. Mostly for air and it pooped the bed as soon as i went to 2nd wheel. Also my spare sYs 60 psi. Wouldnt go over 40 even new. Alround garbage. Get the new lithium. Its been in my trunk fully charged and i just jumped a 6.7L. and the screen went right back up to 100%. All truths real world use. And i baby my stuff believe me. Now it says 24 volt with 25 cranking amps. But the inverter works for much longer. Things jenky
You have to wait 5 minutes after connecting the jump box. Even when you use jumper cables on a dead battery, you don’t just connect cables and try. You wait so the other vehicles charges your battery then you try it. Same thing with jump box, it has to charge your dead battery. Even with a roll around charger you would set it to engine crank before you try it otherwise you would have to do what? Charge it before you try to start the car. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS AND FOLLOW THEM!!! They are there for a reason.
@@russell388877 we have to same one and it’s an pos it won’t start out dodge which is a diesel, our Tahoe, or our camera. It will occasionally start the Polaris. No matter what you’re trying to start our shows an⚠️ symbol ever single time while continually beeping is blaring.🙄 it’s definitely junk. even if you wait the 5 minutes it still doesn’t work.
@@russell388877 it's more likely to start an engine with no battery than one with a shorted out battery. A shorted out battery will rob the amperage needed for starting.
Hooking it to ground is the same as as hooking it to ground follow your ground wire from the battery buddy it goes rite to ground one to the chassis one to the engine block regardless weather you hook it on the battery ground or 6” away to the bolt it’s the same it should start I have one to it’s a pos air pump and usb and. 110 work fine the jump part don’t work
Not only are you giving it ZERO time to charge your battery before turning the key, but you're doing it ALSO with your door open..which also switches on internal lights within the vehicle as well as......ya know... It's insane to me that ...fuck it.. I should've bounced when I heard the accent

I Had this same problem, it only works if you turn the switch On the jumpstarter and at the same time turn the switch to the ignition.. it has to be timed perfectly or the jumpstarter will turn off..

Got a everstart 750 for Christmas and the damn thing doesn't work, had it plugged in for 24 hours, tried to turn the air compressor on and nothing. No screen no nothing, then I plugged it back in and pushed the button and the pump came on but it also turns the light on when you push the tire pump button then I push the light button and it turns on the pump then the light then I unplugged the machine and the LCD went off and nothing. Non of the buttons work This thing is junk. and when I tried to call the 877 number all I got was music for an hour. they do not answer their phones for service.
![Best Car Jump Starters 2024 [don’t buy one before watching this]](/img/1.gif)
The directions in the box says you have to wait five minutes if you don’t fully follow the instructions you can’t expect the product to work as exact
Exactly. i like to wait 5-to-10 minutes to let the device do his magic.
After you turn the jump box on, you gotta let it charge the battery for 5 minutes before attempting to start it
But you shouldn't have to do that. I have a small Audew jump starter and I can start my backhoe with no battery in it and I never have to let it sit on a vehicle to start it.
Correct.
Says it on the instructions

You have to hook it to a ground, not both terminals. I have this exact same jumpbox and it starts my v6 no problem.
Right? Mine started a big diesel truck.. which had two batteries in it
Is there a video on how to hook it up properly ? Cause that seems to be the problem. Incorrect hook ups.
No
This comment needs more likes. Have the same one, mine works perfect grounded to the frame. Jumped a v6 a few times now

It had a ac adapter to charge it
It has a charging port that you have to plug into an outlet using an extension cord (not included). Look under the black square.
@@karenjardine783 it came originally with a charging block and cord.

I have one like that but it no longer has a charge, how can I charge it, thanks for your help
Replacement chargers can be bought on Amazon
I try with my 3500 dodge ram and nothing , was full charge and some one help me with he’s car and turn on more faster
I need fix charges
This should be a lawsuit. Mine broke yesterday. THE COMPRESSOR WOULD NOT TURN OFF! JUST KEPT GOING. NOW DOESNT HOLD CHARGE. I took extra care too
Class Action Lawsuit. Too many bad reviews on this
How do you turn it off? The light always stays on and its not plugged in.
you press buttons twice so if you press the usb you jave to press it again for lcd to go out or the battery will die down.
my compressor came on by itself pressed to shut it off but light won't go out & blinks every few seconds.
I have the same issue. Plus I can't find a manual online. Lcd will not shut off!
Got this exact same box and it started everything I've put it on id buy another when this one goes bad IT MOST LIKELY WILL NOT START A JUNK BATTERY
You got to let it sit on the battery for at least 5 minutes before you try to crank it
It works fine for me. It sounds like it was cranking.
You can use any jumper if the battery is stone dead
yours must be faulty,i got the exact same one and it starts everything from a stone dead battery no problem. Including diesel engines.
It works for me
I have the 1200a peak and it won’t start my car either
mine always worked just fine
Hooking it to ground is the same as as hooking it to ground follow your ground wire from the battery buddy it goes rite to ground one to the chassis one to the engine block regardless weather you hook it on the battery ground or 6” away to the bolt it’s the same it should start I have one to it’s a pos air pump and usb and. 110 work fine the jump part don’t work
Mine wont even start my Quad
Till you what i don't like is you can't plug it straight in to the wall
No wonder it takes 40 HOURS TO Charge it
Unacceptable!!!
Creo q una batería ya con mucho tiempo mala sin nada de carga debe usar algo más industrial para cargar primero
My 750 doesn't jump start either.
You’re battery is completely dead. I’ve jumped at under 11 volts stored. And quit saying 400 amps
I have this same exact jumper and am curious as to if anyone knows how to charge this jumper
Add extension cord

Seems like your car battery need to trickle charge. Jump starter doesn't on this dead battery.
40 hours wow. I thought they were ready for use at time of purchase.
Mine was ready right from the Walmart shelf. I jumped my car in less than 4 minutes.
I got the 750a version for it, and it’s sucked lol.. charged it all night and still didn’t work.. it’s been like a 6 months, wonder if they’ll still return it? 🤣🤔

I got a little pt cruiser in it didn't start
Same problem here
Someone gave this to me. How do i charge it?
There should be a charging cable that came with it
How do you turn it off?
Did you ever figure out how to turn it off
How you charge it
Small DC converter you plug into a wall socket.
IMustBe Crazy I loss my DC converter plug, do you know what size plug it takes? I got a 12 volt 5.5*2.5mm plug but it’s too small

I let it sit 5 min and it started my car.
12.2 not enough brother
Starter require minimum 12.4 at the minimum

Bwahaha!! That's because u are supposed to connect the negative to a GROUND!!! not the negative TERMINAL on the battery laughing my ass off🤣🤣🤣
Will not jump my 4 cylinder Kia
but i liked this video
Biggest garbage ever pls don’t ever buy
